Sorry, I was confused.

Both scripts do the same, the page is still opened in new tab too...

@GEV: (edited) @mikeyww:

I am using AHK 1.1.36, but the result is the same, the page is still opened in a new tab too.

@GEV: A great tip, thank you!

- With Sleep between 200 and 400 the click sometimes opens the page in a new window, with 500 this seems to happen reliably.
- However, in all these cases the page is also opened in a new tab, which is the original function of Ctrl+Click. Any idea?

I am new in Firefox (111, Portable). According to my settings a click on a link opens the target page in such a manner: Click = in same Tab, Ctrl+Click = in new Tab, Shift+Click = in new window. I would like to open in a new window by clicking Ctrl+Click. The following doesn't work, FF still opens i...

@mikeyww: A last-ditch effort: >> The bad guys ... ... They send attachments. Really always? I get emails almost every day asking me to click on a link (e.g. to do something urgent at my bank). So, according to your logic, you never send an email with a link to someone you know, do you? Because if t...

@mikeyww: >> You understand the risks, but does Grandma? One last question about your whole argument: If you were the bad guy yourself and wanted to send my grandma a devilish malware to her computer by an email using my name, and you would consider doing it by method 1 or by method 2: 1. I send her...

@swagfag: I am sure you are quite sure about all this. And I'm glad to have made you laugh. 20 years into the past I cannot travel, you're right, but I just went 2 hours into the future. And this future, which is now already present, says to me: Well look, there is a light on the horizon. There is a...

Thanks, swagfag, for your effort on this off-topics topic. I still feel essentially misunderstood by you, but everything has probably been said.

Back to the topic itself: Are there perhaps file compression programs that would offer better chances to outsmart AV protection?

@swagfag: i dont know what u want me to say What I want to say is extremely simple and just a reaction to the tone with which my dissatisfaction is answered here. But otherwise I agree with everything you say. So: All of you try to associate the problem with AV exclusively with the AV companies. I k...

Yes, you're right, swagfag, but there are actually still people who don't understand why the peculiarity of AHK, which they are always annoyed about, is a very special benefit and actually a service to humanity. There are hardly any other programs except AHK and AHK executables that bring this great...

@swagfag: I'll give your arguments full credit, but isn't that a bit of a strange line of thinking? Of course there are more or less complicated ways out for everything, but that one is forced to look for them is supposed to be pushed aside in this insistence? >> want to send via that particular mai...

... And not a single inhabitant of the AHK world is able to eMail an AHK executable to another? ...

Thank you, mikeyww! I suppose, even if I change the setting on my email server, the server of the receiver would treat the content as malware. In my case txt (or other extensions) doesn't help. As I see now, the same is with an email containing the original AutoHotkey.exe (or bin, or mpress). So I w...

There is probably still no practical usable solution to this problem, is there?
I just saw that I can't even send a zipped file by eMail because the mailserver prevents that. Is there possibly a trick for this particular problem?

Found a solution: Send {Enter} works.

In a browser window I can spring by Tab to different input fields, One of these seems to be a kind of checkbox (see picture). I see that this checkbox is somehow focused. ControlGetFocus gives no value, an AHK Spy shows no control under the mouse position. Now I would like to send a click to this co...

Is it possible to influence the behavior of Windows when clicking in the outer edge zone of a GUI? I would like my specific GUI to have no such zone, i.e. that the clicks also work normally immediately next to the edge of the GUI.

@MrDodel, @RussF: If the touch screen is disabled, there are no ghost taps. But I need the touch screen functionality too. @swagfaf: I made the bold assumption that the fact of 100 million Windows tablets and convertibles sold in the last few years might be a reason to wonder why there are no soluti...

Perhaps the following might be of interest: A touchscreen tap in the blocked area does not behave exactly like a mouse click. A left click in the blocked area does not activate the window if there is an inactive window under the click. A tap activates it. I am surprised that apparently no AHK expert...
