Hyper-V support #7

Closed timtucker-dte closed 10 months ago

timtucker-dte commented 10 months ago

Would be good to add support for virtual machine connections via Hyper-V as well.

Should be relatively simple -- as best as I can tell the windows just end with the title " - Virtual Machine Connection"

Alternately, you could match based on executable: vmconnect.exe

New release published, let me know if there are any issues. I could not test vmconnect.exe but since all process names are part of the same pattern, it should be fine (unless vmconnect.exe is not the actual window process).

Adding as an update:

This works.

In order to intercept keys from the Hyper-V window, though, AutoHotKey has to run the script with admin privileges.

Easiest way I found to do that was to add a scheduled task that launches the script using log on as a trigger.
