Try ^h:: { SendMode "Event" MouseClickDrag "L", 350, 450, 150, 450, 5 } Speed [...] Speed is ignored for SendInput /Play modes; they move the mouse instantaneously (though SetMouseDelay has a mode that applies to SendPlay). To visually move the mouse more slowly -- such as a script that performs a d...

@Draken, no worries. You can learn a lot by helping other users, even if you get corrected sometimes.
I would still consider myself a v2 beginner - and I will probably get corrected many times, going forward.

sachinme , I am not sure what "doesn't work" is supposed to mean in this context. Here, your code seems to work as expected: On my keyboard layout, Win and Up maximizes the active window. Your code does that, too. So what's your goal? Please elaborate. Also, looking at your posted keyhistory , it s...

Why so much animosity towards PMC on this forum? We still provide a subforum for it which you could see as a sign of good will (or perhaps bad judgment), although Pulover usually doesn't provide support anymore for his software. Most regular AHK users just don't see the point to learn about a seemi...

Afaics, cURL is more like a command line tool and a library (libcurl) for a specific kind of task than a programming language, but I have seen several v2 topics which might be what you are looking for (but I haven't tried them so far): For example: Extend Your Scripts/Programs with Lua! (by Delta Py...

Ich weiß nicht, ob dir das jemand abschließend beantworten kann. Die Kompilierung von AHK-Dateien ist ja nur eine relativ einfache Rekombination von Interpreter und Textdatei zu einer ausführbaren Datei - und keine Kompilierung im landläufigen Sinne. Ob jetzt Antivirus-Heuristiken - die vermutlich i...

Vielleicht als vermutetes false positive bei Microsoft einreichen? https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=62266 Aber das kann natürlich dauern, fürchte ich... Oder es mal mit einer älteren AHK-Version kompilieren? 🤷‍♂️ Zur Zeit hat AHK leider wieder mal schwer zu kämpfen mit den allm...

No need to delete your post. If these are the posts you were lokking for, it's all fine.

Edit: Since you created another topic, I deleted the original one which didn't get any response yet.

There are different utilities which can do this. If you have a recent MS Powershell version installed, this should work: https://www.se.com/us/en/faqs/FAQ000244427/
Worked here (where Windows Defender also originally quarantined the latest AHK installer and I had to restore it):

I am having issues with posting. When I submit a new topic post, I get neither a rejection or approval, it just disappears into the void. If you are looking for your last two posts/topics from a few days ago, they have been moved here, from AHK v2 help to v1 help: https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/...

Unfortunately, AutoHotkey gets regularly false positives from AV software, especially (but not limited to) new releases. https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/v2/FAQ.htm#Virus https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=62266 If you download from this page or the github release page (https://gi...

Welcome to the AHK forums! Seems futile, I would rather look into context-sensitive/window-specific hotkeys: https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/v2/Tutorial.htm#s22 https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/v2/lib/_HotIf.htm (imo, if I don't know or already use a specific Excel or Word shortcut, there seems no ha...

Just to clarify once again, this would be a hotstring actually, not a hotkey.
But T or text mode is available for both, just the syntax differs.

The parentheses of functions are only optional if you don't need the return value and the function name is at the start of the line.
See https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/v2/Language.htm#function-call-statements

KeyWait doesn't use braces.
(Send needs to use that syntax because it's also able to send multiple keys in a row and without braces you would have ambiguity; this doesn't apply to KeyWait which only accepts one single key.)

PS: Please use code tags, next time. Thank you!

In expressions , which you have a lot in v2, you should only quote strings (literal text) - but if you want to evaluate a variable , you shouldn't quote its name. MsgBox(A_ScriptName " updated", "Notice", "T1") Btw, that's a general rule for expressions and not specific to msgboxes. See also: concat...

My script is certain in v2 the #Requires AutoHotkey v2+ is on thet top of my script Well, we don't know your actual script and have to go with the information provided. We actually encounter a lot of v1 questions which are initially posted in the v2 help subforums. When I moved your script, I based...

I was pretty sure I posted this in AHK 2.0 section [Mod action: Topic moved from "Ask for Help (v2)" since this is v1 code.] :shock: Can I please get this script for AHK 2.0 I moved the topic back to v2 help. Generally, if you post v1 code and want it translated to v2, it would be good to state thi...

I used the v1 some years without seeing this problem... I think this is a very important thing, then is important to explain it on the hel manual, usage and syntax. There are plenty of topics on the v1 forums about this. But if people don't read the docs - and the FAQs are an important part of the ...

It is in the FAQ

- and before it has been for ages in the AHK v1 FAQ (then, only UTF-8 with BOM was recommended; v2 doesn't necessarily need the BOM).
