Telegram bot commands to control your Windows PC remotely
This is the complete command reference for Telegram remote control with your private MoLock bot. There is nothing to memorise: send /menu for a button panel, or /guide for a walkthrough with examples. If you prefer typing commands, every one is listed here by topic, each with an example of the reply you receive, along with the alerts that arrive automatically when someone approaches your PC or tries to close MoLock. New in 2.6: save notes, add to-dos and set reminders straight from the chat, and check on your private portal. The bot responds only to your own chat. Not linked yet? Follow the linking steps. New in 2.7: the official bot, @MoLockOfficialBot, for your MoLock Account — it works alongside your personal bot, even while your PC is off.
No command matches your search.
Official bot @MoLockOfficialBot
These commands go to the official bot, @MoLockOfficialBot — not to your personal bot. The official bot is run by MoLock: one bot for everyone that recognises you by your Telegram account and works even when your PC is off. It sends the sign-in codes for MoLock Account, links your PCs, shows their status with quick buttons, keeps your files and reports every sign-in and action. Your personal bot stays exactly as it is, with every command in the sections below, answering whenever your PC is on.
/startA welcome message that explains the official bot and offers to link this chat to your MoLock Account.
/start → 🐳 Welcome to MoLock · Link this chat to your account to control your PCs from anywhere./loginSends you the 6-digit sign-in code when the account page asks for it. The code is valid for 5 minutes. If you didn't ask for it, don't share it with anyone and change your account password.
/login → 🔑 Your sign-in code: 482 913 · valid for 5 minutes. Never share it./link<code>Links a PC to your account. Show the code in MoLock Settings → Account on that PC (valid for 10 minutes, single use), then send it here. If you don't have an account yet, it is created with your first PC.

Whenever a session starts, the bot sends a message with an "⛔ End session" button.
/control → [🖥 DESKTOP-MO] [🖥 LAPTOP-SARA] → the session opens in your browser/filesYour latest shared files with their links. Send the bot any document or photo (up to 20 MB) and it's stored in your files with a ready share link.
