Hi there!

You can do the following actually since there is no way you can use the send keys action in the background:

Install a Virtual machine and have all your jobs running there, while you are using your machine

:D

im looking for something that sends to innactive windows keys so i can do other things to

[WinAutomation]

@007foppe that cannot be done at the moment using WinAutomation, however, you can always have WinAutomation's executable files running on a virtual machine, to do your tasks, and yet, use your machine at the same time :)

the videos are very good but the Very loud sound at the beginning in completely unneeded.

@MrPurpleDuck Glad that I could help :) Once you pass through the kinda tricky first jobs and get the hang of WinAutomation it surely pays off... Enjoy the journey :D

@Ploutonakos Thank you very much. I did use the Loop Condition to create an endless loop. You have been a great help and i will continue to use Winautomation.

[Ploutonakos]

@MrPurpleDuck Well, basically it depends on how you have built your job. What kind of loop are you using? If you are using the "Loop Condition" action and created an endless loop, you can just stop the job with the Global Hotkey (default: Ctrl+Alt+T) if you executed it from the console. You can change the global hotkey to stop running jobs through the "Tools - Options" menu, General tab in the console

Winautomation is a big help too. But i have one problem while using the Macro Recorder. Once i have created a job, and activating it in a loop, i do not know how to stop it, as it will continue to run and i am not able to stop it. Please respond.
