Need help with clicking through Firewall screen

[LeroyJenkins608]

Hello
I'm a n00b to AutoHotKey, and I see it's usefulness in automating software installations to make them silent.

I'm trying to have an AHC script that clicks through this Firewall window. I've tried a number of combinations but with no luck. Ultimately, I just need the script to simulate clicking 'Allow Access' on the Windows Security Alert screen.

I'm getting stuck on ControlClick (I think its the best command for this job?). I don't see it ever sending any clicks to the window.

Here is my script:

Code: Select all

#NoEnv  ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
#NoTrayIcon
;#Warn  ; Enable warnings to assist with detecting common errors.
SendMode Input  ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%  ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.
#Persistent
SetControlDelay, -1

WinWaitActive Windows Security Alert ahk_class #32770 ahk_exe rundll32.exe
if ErrorLevel
{
	MsgBox, Timed out.
	return
}
else
	Send !a
	ControlClick, &Allow access, Windows Security Alert,,,, NA

Here is Window Spy along with the window I'm trying to click through.

Can anyone offer some suggestions as to what I might be doing wrong to click 'Allow access' on this window?

Are you able to obtain a handle for the control when the window exists?

Code: Select all

ControlGet, hWnd, hWnd, , &Allow Access, Windows Security Alert
MsgBox %	hWnd

I am not. the MsgBox comes back blank

If you run WinGet while the window is open, does it produce the control list?

Code: Select all

WinGet, cList, ControlList, Windows Security Alert
MsgBox %	cList

I don't think windows will let you issue synthetic input while at a security type screen.
If you wish to issue non-synthetic input, you could use AutoHotInterception (see link in sig).
AHI *can* move the mouse, but only via "Raw" signals - there is no such thing as MouseMove (To specific on-screen coordinates) in AHI

I believe it does. When I ran your code, I got a window with a listing of 24 different entries:
Static1
Static2
Static3
Static4
Edit1
Static5
Edit2
Static6
Edit3
Static7
Edit4
Static8
Static9
Button1
Button2
Static10
Button3
Button4
Button5
SysLink1
Static11
Button6
Button7

Do you know the actual name of the button from that list?
