Description
AUTOIT3 is a great software. By automating it saves us a lot of time. But here is a problem I want to pose. When I am installing a huge software it takes a lot of time, during which time I tend to walk away and do something else other than waiting beside the computer. However, for security reasons, most of the time I will lock my computer (SHORTCUT: WIN+L) if I am away. I found functions such as "WinAvtivate" cannot be used when the screen is locked. Can AUTOIT3 support GUI manipulations at such circumstances? If yes, what functions should I use? If not, are there any methods by which I can still accomplish the automation task?
Many thanks for any reply.
