HI,

I am trying do to a macro with the following actions:
1. Create 1 "process"
2. open Cheat Engine Window and to connect Cheat Engine to the created process

I did a macro to send the necessary mouse clicks... however, as soon as the Cheat Engine window opens... the macro stops.

I also tried to send macro'ed keys to Cheat Engine window, without success.

I searched for info about this behaviour and found nothing. Can you confirm if this behaviour is intended?

Thank you,
Marco

This was the case. Running the macro with Admin priveleges works normally.

Thank You ^^
