Alternative for Send/ControlSend

[MirnesC2]

Is there any other alternatives for the Send/ControlSend functions? Any other possible way of sending keystrokes? A DLL injection/call?

[GEOSoft]

Why are you duplicating threads? This is te same question you asked in the other thread and it has another common factor; you harping about DLL injection will make people suspicious about your true intentions.

[MirnesC2]

What do you mean by true intentions?

[MirnesC2]

No one wants to help me?...

[bo8ster]

What do you want to do that Send/Control Send cannot?

It is a general interest question or is the a restriction with Send/Control Send?

GEOSoft was pointing out that most ppl that require DLL injection have malicious intentions.

I don't really even know what DLL injection is, I just thought it might be related as an alternative.

Thank you wolf. I got the textSend function down, but I'm not sure what the keySend function does? I tried replacing 0x26 (UP key) with something like 0x50(P key) just to test it, and it didn't appear in the edit box? (UP key works)

For example this doesn't work...

#include <SendMessage.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>

$hWnd = WinGetHandle("Untitled - Notepad")
sleep("5000")
_SendMessage($hWnd,$WM_KEYDOWN,0x26,0)
_SendMessage($hWnd,$WM_KEYUP,0x26,0)
_SendMessage($hWnd,$WM_CHAR,AscW("p"))
MsgBox(0,"Handle",$hWnd)

Hi MirnesC2,

the only alternative to send keystrokes without using Send or Controlsend has been explained in Search for ControlCommand() in that script.

Hope you find the script useful.

Hey,

Thanks for the reply, I tried this earlier as well. It doesn't really fit with what I am making. If someone can error check this, I think it may work.

#include <SendMessage.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>

$hWnd = WinGetHandle("Untitled - Notepad")
sleep("5000")
_SendMessage($hWnd,$WM_KEYDOWN,0x26,0)
_SendMessage($hWnd,$WM_KEYUP,0x26,0)
_SendMessage($hWnd,$WM_CHAR,AscW("p"))
MsgBox(0,"Handle",$hWnd)
