Thank you so much for your support. I tried to learn autohotkey tutorials from many youtubers. However nothing worked well for me. Ultimately I found yours. I watched almost all and found the solution for my burden. I spent almost three days and made my own automation to ease my work. This will definitely benefit my future work. If someone deserves a credit, it is you. Thank you so much for your effort in making these videos. Please add more to the same playlist. You can also make a new playlist for the newer version. Many people will be benefitted from your hard work. I hope that many people subscribe to your channel. You deserve way more than this. God bless you and your family. ❤❤❤

Hi, when I open version 2 of the autohotkey "app" it doesn't have any of the code, it is either completely empty or says "#requires v2" (I installed v2). I tried following the commands but it does not work.
I suspect it's because I do not have the initial code.

I'm on an iMac and when I try to open the file this message appears: Safari can't open the file because no available application can open it
