AutoIt seems to interfere with my computer in an odd way. It messes with my shortcuts on my computer, mouse clicks and key presses do odd things. I had to reboot twice and make sure AutoIt is the cause of this behavior. I ended up with uninstalling it.

The script below activates Visual Studio and then sends a key. I see the app gets activated but the key doesn't do anything. I tried different keys. However when I hit the same key manually after the app is activated through AutoIt, it works. What am I doing wrong? Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 2) ; set to match part of title If Not WinActive("Microsoft Visual Studio","") Then WinActivate("Microsoft Visual Studio","") if 0 = WinWaitActive("Microsoft Visual Studio","") then MsgBox(0, "Error", "Can't open Visual Studio") Exit(1) EndIf Sleep(250) ;Send("{!f}") ;Send("{F1}") Send("{LALT down}") Send("{f}")
