Generally speaking, the pixel search works for what is visible on the screen. I think I once saw a forum post with a script for searching background windows that were not visible, so you could search for something like that. I do not know whether it would work on a locked workstation.

The link that I posted has a demo. You might want to get more familiar with AHK first, by reviewing the documentation's introduction. Using the GDIP library may require a bit of knowledge about how AHK works. I think I would probably try to get familiar with how PixelSearch works, and then move to GDIP as a next step.
