Powershell form close form after 30 minutes if no activity exists

To close a PowerShell form after 30 minutes of inactivity, you can use a timer to track user activity and close the form if no interaction occurs within the specified time. Below is an example script using Windows Forms:

# Load Windows Forms assembly
Add-Type -AssemblyName System.Windows.Forms

# Create the form
$form = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.Form
$form.Text = "Auto-Close Form"
$form.Size = New-Object System.Drawing.Size(300, 200)

# Create a label
$label = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.Label
$label.Text = "This form will close after 30 minutes of inactivity."
$label.AutoSize = $true
$label.Location = New-Object System.Drawing.Point(10, 10)
$form.Controls.Add($label)

# Timer to track inactivity
$timer = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.Timer
$timer.Interval = 1000 # 1 second
$inactivityLimit = 30 * 60 # 30 minutes in seconds
$inactivityCounter = 0

# Reset inactivity counter on user interaction
$form.Add_MouseMove({ $inactivityCounter = 0 })
$form.Add_KeyPress({ $inactivityCounter = 0 })

# Timer tick event
$timer.Add_Tick({
    $inactivityCounter++
    if ($inactivityCounter -ge $inactivityLimit) {
        $timer.Stop()
        $form.Close()
    }
})

# Start the timer and show the form
$timer.Start()
$form.ShowDialog()

# Dispose resources
$form.Dispose()
$timer.Dispose()

Explanation:

1. Form Creation: A simple form with a label is created.
2. Timer: A System.Windows.Forms.Timer is used to track inactivity in seconds.
3. User Interaction: Mouse movement (MouseMove) and key presses (KeyPress) reset the inactivity counter.
4. Auto-Close: If the counter reaches 30 minutes (1800 seconds), the form closes automatically.

This script ensures the form closes after 30 minutes of inactivity while resetting the timer upon user interaction
