In this tutorial you will learn how to turn monitors on and off with a shortcut or hotkey in Windows. We will create a PowerShell script to put a shortcut on our desktop and create a hotkey for our keyboard. PowerShell scripts are automation tools and can be used in Windows 10 or Windows 11.

PowerShell Script: powershell (Add-Type '[DllImport(\"user32.dll\")]public static extern int PostMessage(int h,int m,int w,int l);' -Name a -Pas)::PostMessage(-1,0x0112,0xF170,2)
