AutoIt

Whenever you need to perform the same tasks and operations in Windows over and over again, you will notice that this can become annoying over time and also inefficient. To avoid this situation, you could just create and use scripts. Thus, you will be able to perform your desired tasks and operations on a regular basis completely automatically, thus saving a lot of time and effort.

A program which allows you to create scripts is AutoIt. This Windows application allows you to create scripts by using a special scripting language, which is not difficult to learn. After the program has been installed, the user first needs to launch the script editor. Here, he will be able to take advantage of the line numbering feature and the auto-complete option, which automatically displays the full name of a command, when typing just a part of it. Thus, you will be able to create scripts much faster and you will also avoid errors in scripts.

In order to make sure that the script was created properly, the user can access the syntax checker, which quickly spots all errors in a script. After it has been created, the user can save it in a proprietary format or export it to a wide range of formats, which are compatible with other scripting applications. In order to test a created script, one can launch the specialized utility which was installed together with AutoIt.
