Hey Dralik, imagine if we could write a prank that follows a rigid code yet still makes people laugh—would that be your kind of challenge?
Dralik
I appreciate the proposal, but any prank must be preapproved by the compliance module. If the code guarantees no unintended consequences and passes the logic audit, then I can consider it. The log entry will record the request and the final script will be stored in the secure repository. After that, we can test it in a controlled environment. If you want to proceed, provide the exact parameters and constraints.

Sure thing, let’s keep it tight and fun. Here’s the blueprint:
- **Goal**: A harmless “whoosh” sound that pops up when someone opens a file labeled “Important”.
- **Scope**: Only triggers on desktop, not on server or mobile.
- **Trigger**: File double‑click → sound plays → brief pop‑up text “Gotcha!”.
- **Resources**: Use a small .wav file (max 500 KB), embed it in the script.
- **Security**: No external network calls, no data logging, just local audio.
- **Compliance**: No user data accessed, no permission escalation, runs under user context.
- **Rollback**: A simple uninstall script that deletes the sound file and removes the shortcut.
- **Testing**: Run in a sandbox with a test user, check that only the labeled file triggers it, no crashes.
Just give me the file name tag to watch for (e.g., “Important”) and the audio file path, and I’ll draft the minimal script for you. No tricks that mess with settings or data—just a quick laugh!

File name tag: Important
Audio file path: C:\Pranks\whoosh.wav

Here’s the tiny, tidy prank script.
Just drop it into a batch file (e.g., **prank.bat**) and make the “Important” file launch it instead of its usual app.
```bat
@echo off
setlocal
rem Grab the file path that was double‑clicked
set "file=%~1"
rem Check if the name contains the tag “Important”
echo %file% | findstr /i "Important" >nul
if not errorlevel 1 (
rem Play the whoosh sound
powershell -noprofile -command "(New-Object Media.SoundPlayer 'C:\Pranks\whoosh.wav').PlaySync()"
rem Show a cheeky pop‑up
powershell -noprofile -command "Add-Type -AssemblyName Microsoft.VisualBasic; [Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction]::MsgBox('Gotcha!','Ok','Prank Alert')"
)
```
**How to hook it up**
1. Right‑click a file with the “Important” tag → Open with → Choose another app.
2. Click **More apps** → **Look for another app on this PC**.
3. Browse to the folder where you saved **prank.bat**, select it, and check “Always use this app to open .docx files” (or whatever extension you’re testing).
4. Now double‑clicking an “Important” file will trigger the whoosh and the “Gotcha!” box—no data snooping, just pure giggles.
Happy pranking, Dralik!
