Automate third party software


Recommended Posts

@Rock, welcome to AutoIt and to the forum.

when a program (typically, an installer) is running in a different security context (typically, as an administrator) then your AutoIt script running in the regular user security context cannot interact with it.

other than that, some programs do prevent external automation, and some do not provide standard Windows controls to interact with. if you want to get any relevant help in this forum, you should at least mention what program are you trying to automate. some screenshots and the output of the AutoIt Window Info Tool might also help.

P.S. what was that gibberish you dumped in that other thread for?
