How set F13 - F24?

How to set F13 - F24 keys? I tried using AutoHotkey but no response :(

I've used power automate, a 5 second delay and send key with {F13} and so on. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/desktop-flows/actions-reference/mouseandkeyboard

Thanks but I found a simpler and faster solution in PowerShell (Terminal), it doesn't require any tools :) Unfortunately, this method has one drawback, it only works for F13 - F16 :( https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.windows.forms.sendkeys?view=netframework-4.8.1

# Add the System.Windows.Forms external library
Add-Type -AssemblyName System.Windows.Forms

# 5-second delay
Start-Sleep -Seconds 5

# Simulate pressing the F13 key
[System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys]::SendWait("{F13}")

# Wait for the Enter key to be pressed before ending the script
Read-Host "Press Enter to exit..."

P.S. However, AutoHotkey works, I just had to make a new build from the source files because the KeyCode.cs file was updated 2 days ago in which the author added F13 - F24

@krzxsiek could you share your AHK script to send F13-24 keys to the macropad software? I haven't been able to make it work on my end using the latest version (2.0.11).
