Macro issue

[MrMcMuffinJr]

I have a 20 character long password that I have to renew every 12 hours for work. (yesterdays expired pawword as example of why I hate typing it: "7.ll_hP}+XhE-94F") Usually when I'm on a win 10 machine I can just copy paste. when the users computer is running 7, the clipboard is disabled. I created a macro with AHK that types out my password. the password goes in but it always says it's wrong. When I type the same password in like normal, it takes. Why would this be? is UAC able to detect the use of a macro and circumvent it? I even tried adding a delay between the characters but same issue. Thanks for any assistance.

Easier way would be to use a password manager, which also supports Auto-Type. KeePass/KeePassXC does it for sure, don't know about others.

Try with

SendInput, {RAW}PASSWORD

You could also right click on the script in the buttom and select open. Then under View select "Variables and their content". See if it has extra characters listed. If you aren't using {RAW} it might use it as a stop character

I pasted and used script underneath and the two are identical
