hey guys,

can i make a script for that lock remote keyboard and mouse when my script running ?

You know, sometimes user will cancel the script, so....

Any suggestion will be appreciated!

You can hide the systray icon with #NoTrayIcon or use Break(1) that prevents a user stopping the script. Group policy can disable Task Manager for limited accounts so no problems there.

Thanks a lot . But another problem, i use the script to install a software , there's a "Cancel" button on the installation window , so if the user click this button , the installation will be abort and my script will be failed, right? So i want to lock user's keyboard and mouse when the script is running, can do ?

First, you may want to check if the software can be installed silently by using switches. If you need to automate it then it is differcult to interrupt a script that uses WinWait() and Control*() functions and the 1st window can be WinMove() off screen. If you need to use MouseClick() and/or Send(), then you can use BlockInput() to lock the keyboard and mouse.

Thank you very much ! I will try to edit my script with your suggestion.
