You will notice that a lot of the apps that I create and share here are very niche security tools that are really only used by a small subset of computer security professionals.

However, the reason why I want to share my apps here is because I always want to give back and help in any way possible. Even though my apps wont be used by many people here in the AutoIt community, there were hundreds of roadblocks that I ran into and came up with working solutions for. It is those unique solutions that might benefit some users.

For example, win32-darkmode is great. But Microsoft never completely finished it and only did what they needed out of it. Examples:

• Checkboxes
  • Previously needed to remove theming from checkbox which used old style
  • The text of the checkbox could not be colored without using old style checkbox
  • I use a label, lined up with the checkbox, and make that label function (clickable) along with the checkbox
  • This ensures still being able to use modern looking checkbox
• Input/Edit Boxes
  • Using dark mode, those input/edit boxes get a terribly thick border by default with awful contrast
  • I used no border with my input/edit boxes and custom color/label to look nicer
• Combo boxes
  • Combo boxes normally could not be colored for dark mode
  • The GUIComboBoxColor UDF helped here
• Menu bar, status bar, etc.
  • Custom ownerdrawn menu bar and status bar

 

Features:

• starting normal win32 apps within an AppContainer sandbox
• listview of AppContainer capabilities to select
• set ACL permissions on files, folders and registry keys for AppContainers
• ETW (event tracing for Windows) tracing for blocked AppContainer objects
• built on GitHub Actions
