Send keys in lockscreen
I am trying to make a simple script that will ensure the windows lock screen is asking for a pin not a password (it randomly asks for a password which annoys me). I think the easiest way is to just send some tab and space commands to select the sign-in options and then pin. My issue is that it seems I cannot just send a key in lockscreen (nothing happens). Is there any work around for this?

Welcome to this AutoHotkey forum!
When I say that something cannot be done, I am usually proven wrong, but I would not be optimistic about this because the lock screen is a Windows security feature.

It can be done.

Or use PsExec.exe to run script from system account.

I was right after all, since I was wrong.

I have also learned that my posting “it is not possible” is a sure fire way to summon a post from someone like malcev or teadrinker with a solution.
