Notes

You can also refer to Send-UserLockPopup by its alias, "sulp". For more information, see about_Aliases. To use Send-UserLockPopup, you must have the "User sessions" UserLock administrative access right. Send a pop-up to RAS or IIS sessions is not supported. Send-UserLockPopup prompts to confirm pop-up by default. To prevent from prompting, use -Force. To use Send-UserLockPopup with ISDecisions.UserLockLibrary.Session objects through the pipeline, you can use the Get-UserLockSession cmdlet.
