I would like to run the Windows Photo Gallery from the Task Scheduler,
but do not know where to look to get instruction on using the command
line arguments. I can get it to open to it's default location, but
want it to open a specific file in full screen mode. Can anyone help
with this or point me to a place with the documentation?

I couldn't find any command-line switches for the Photo Gallery, but if you
would like, you can have Internet Explorer open a particular image in full
screen without any toolbars visible. Open the image in IE from the command
(or run) line, and use the -k switch to put it into full screen kiosk mode.
