Is there a way to move arrow key to left on Windows Popup?
I am writing a script which will allow PowerShell to run in admin mode but when I run Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass, Windows displays a popup and I use my left arrow key to move to the yes button and press enter.
The problem I am facing is that it does not move to the left or press enter when I run the script as follows.
RunWait PowerShell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -NoExit -Command "C:Users%A_UserName%DesktopScript.ps1";
Send {Left}
Sleep, 5000
Send {Enter}
I am expecting it to actually move to the OK button on the left and press enter but nothing actually happens.

- If you run PowerShell in admin mode your script needs also to be run
in this mode. - Unlike Run, RunWait will wait until the program (in
this case PowerShell.exe) finishes before continuing (= sending
commands to the popup window). To bypass this problem use SetTimer.

Thanks for the help. I figured out a solution to my problem by running the .ahk in Admin Mode and it worked like a gem. Thanks though!
