+# This script was made for use in conjunction with an RMM like SyncroMSP to monitor a folder for files added
+# within the last 15 minutes. The script is run on a schedule by the RMM and once it detects files that have been
+# added within the configured timeframe, it plays a series of system beeps on the host computer.
+#
+# The use case for this script was to call the user's attention to the newly added files even if they were a few
+# feet away from their desk.
+
+#Input the absolute path to the folder you want to monitor here:
+$monitored_folder = ""
