Valhalla1 0 Posted September 18, 2007 I am using a lot of autoit inside vmware, there are a few places where it would be helpful to force a keyboard disconnect during my scripts which move the mouse and what not, to prevent the user accidently moving the mouse and interferring with the script. normally disconnecting keyboard/mouse focus in vmware is accomplished with the CTRL+ALT keystroke when vmware has kb/mouse focus, but simply sending CTRL+ALT with autoit doesnt seem to work for me thanks for any tips Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
