setup_task.ps1

# setup_task.ps1
# Registers Auto Sort Folder as a Windows logon task.
#
# HOW TO RUN:
#   1. Open PowerShell on Windows (not WSL) — no admin needed.
#   2. Navigate to this folder (replace YOUR_WSL_DISTRO and YOUR_WSL_USERNAME):
#        cd "\\wsl$\YOUR_WSL_DISTRO\home\YOUR_WSL_USERNAME\Auto-Sort-Folder"
#   3. Allow the script to run (one-time):
#        Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
#   4. Run:
#        .\setup_task.ps1
#
# TO REMOVE THE TASK LATER:
#   Unregister-ScheduledTask -TaskName "AutoSortFolder" -Confirm:$false

$TaskName   = "AutoSortFolder"

# Auto-detect the WSL username so this works on any machine
$WslUser    = (wsl whoami).Trim()
$ScriptPath = "/home/$WslUser/Auto-Sort-Folder/gui.py"

# ── Action: call wsl.exe which invokes Python inside your default distro ──
