WinScreeny

I took one of the three Github WinScreeny bash scripts and modified it to look like this:

Here is the modified code:

I won't spend a lot of time dissecting it but you will notice it's a hybrid of some Linux kernel stuff and some Windows kernel stuff.

For example this Linux kernel line displays your CPU information:

cpu=$(awk -F':' '/model name/{ print $2 }' /proc/cpuinfo | head -n 1 | tr -s " " | sed 's/^ //')

On the other hand this Windows kernel line displays your motherboard model:

board=`/mnt/c/Windows/System32/wbem/WMIC.exe baseboard get product | tail -2 | tr -d '\r '`

Weather, Calendar and Time

Some people like the top part of the Ubuntu Bash on Windows 10 (WSL) terminal splash screen. If you would like the Weather, Calendar and current Time to display you can find the instructions here: How can I get this terminal splash screen?

Why didn't I think of that?

This is one of those solutions where you look at it and think "Why didn't I think of that?". Unfortunately I had to look at many websites with wrong suggestions or over-kill such as "how to use regedit to run shortcut as admin".

Having the right parameters

Right click on your Windows 10 desktop and setup your shortcut to look like this:

The full line for the Target field should look like this:

C:\Windows\System32\bash.exe -c "cd && DISPLAY=:0 /mnt/e/bin/lock-screen-timer"

NOTE: Most users will use /mnt/c/.... as their path but I'm dual-booting and the same script is shared by WSL and Ubuntu 16.04 so must be on a separate NTFS partition I've called /mnt/e. WSL cannot write to a Linux ext4 drive and Linux nor Windows Apps can write to a WSL sub-directory. It's complicated...

Also note the DISPLAY=:0 parameter accommodates calling a bash GUI script but the same is likely true if calling gedit or nautilus which are my next desktop shortcut projects. If not, I'll revise this answer..
