AutoHotkey Community

I am in the process of writing a script to fully run malware bytes, and remove items found. The script works perfectly on my windows 7 64bit pc, it is fully compatible with XP also. My screen resolution changes dont seem to affect my coordinates, but when i run this on another pc some of the clicks are missed, yet using the windows spy shows on my computer the same coordinates that i have scripted. On the XP computer i see different coordinates.

My question is do different screen resolutions affect clicking, and what might my problem be. Script below, please guys this is my first autohotkey script so bear with me.

Instead of relying on clicks try to send either letters (sometimes you can type alt-letter to active a checkbox or button) or use the various control commands http://www.autohotkey.com/docs/commands.htm to click buttons, active checkbox etc this will work regardless of screenres. You can find the ahk_class with the window spy (right click the AHK icon in your systray)
