Topic: Is there an option to run a script at close down (eg powershell / Python)
The case,

I would like to ensure my history and database is copied over to a network drive. The trigger point should be when i close down VirtualDJ software.

The copying script it self i have already made, the challenge is to get it properly triggered when VDJ is closing down. I've tried some external ways using eventIDs in windows via scheduled tasks, windows services - both parts as part of the computer shutdown process, but it dosn't work like a charm.

Therefore i was thinking if there is an option within VDJ, to trigger an external script at close down process?

I have a vdj plugin that can ShellExecute, I'm about to test mapping it to keyboard ONEXIT event.
Edit, yeah it works, if you're interested send me a pm.
