Can I Cloud My GUI-based AHK Script (RDP)  Topic is solved

Post by Gate » 12 Oct 2021, 20:36

I've got a complex long script that needs GUI. I am trying to migrate it from a physical computer to Google Cloud Compute. I am able to get the script running ok, but as soon as I minimize the Google Cloud Computer VM the script does not continue to manipulate the interface. It does continue to run, but all mouse or keyboard input commands are ineffective.

My goal is to have a GUI-based script running on the cloud which I can access from any computer with any monitor set-up.

Has anyone been able to achieve something along these lines? If so, how?


This poster back in 2017 had the same problem:

After research and experimentation, this works:
