AutoHotkey News 2025-04-03 – Pay $20, walk away with $100! It must be a SCAM Right❓

Howdy %Name%,

Imagine you get the following message from your bank:

Hello %name%,

Since you are a great client we are offering an exclusive sale to you.

For the next 5 days you can drop by and purchase $100 dollar bills for $20 each.

There are no limits and no strings attached.

My question to you %name% is: How many $20s would you bring to your bank❓

Would you borrow from your friends & family❓

After all, it seems like a crazy deal right?

You can spend some money now and directly get back 5X?

What if that multiplier was higher❓

Would if it was 20X or 50X?

As crazy as this sounds, that is exactly what you’re doing when you learn AutoHotkey

By learning to automate your work, you are automating what used to take you, your team, your employees time!

And, when done right, you’re not only saving time your reducing the likelihood of human error!

If you want to speed-up the process of buying money, get on my calendar and we’ll figure out how we can help you!

Watch out for this Gotcha❗

A while back we were getting a list of files in a folder and ran into a weird “bug” (or so we thought.)

During an AHK Hero group Isaias explains what went wrong and what to look out for.

I excerpted the discussion which you can see here.

Building a List of Files and-or Folders in AutoHotkey v2

Easily Merging Audio or Video Files

If you have a bunch of Audio or Videio files you want concatenated together, our Media Merger is a great tool for you!

It, very quickly, merges together the media files faster than grandma hits ‘Reply All‘ on a church email chain.

Take a look at it in this video

Are you Sharing your Screen with AI❓

In this video I have Google’s Gemini model explain how Effortless Video Reducer works..

What’s really amazing is that Gemini didn’t “know” my program. It had never seen it before and i didn’t share the source code.

This means it’s pretty darn smart!

If you’re stuck, you can share your screen and ask it for help!

AutoHotkey News 2025-06-19- The Price of Doing Things “The Way We’ve Always Done It”

Howdy %Name%,

Once upon a time there were Two villages and one well.

Every day, villagers trudged out from each city with buckets to get water.

It worked… kinda.

But if someone was sick, if it rained, or if the well ran low—tough luck.

Summers? Multiple trips just to keep crops and animals alive.

Then one village had a bright idea:

Build a system to pipe in water

It’d take time and effort, sure—but once done, they had fresh water on tap. No more buckets!

Under significant costs this village built their water system.

When done:

Their crops thrived
Animals were healthier
People were happier
The city grew because residents had time to do other things

They even built sanitation systems to improve health.

Life got easier and way better (in ways they had not anticipated ❗)

The other village?

They stuck with the bucket system. “Too much work” they said. “Too expensive.”

Over time, their best people left for the smarter village. Progress passed them by…

but hey, they still had their buckets

Does this Sound familiar %Name%?

A lot of businesses do the same. They keep doing things the hard way because “it works,” even though it’s draining them.

The truth? Real growth takes up-front work—but the payoff is massive (and long-term).

This is exactly why I’m so big on AHK!

AutoHotkey is your water system.

Yeah, there’s a learning curve—but once it’s set up? You save time, reduce errors, cut stress, and unlock crazy productivity.

Are you ready to ditch the bucket?

How to Update a Running Script

Have you ever wanted to let your users click a “check for update” option and not only detect a new version is available but also have the new version replace the current running script❓

Isaias walks through how we do this in this video.

But, be forewarned, it is fairly complicated…

How to Update your Running AutoHotkey Script / Program | AHK hero Extract

Use AI to help Document your Programs

I realized that, with Google’s Gemini, you can share your screen (and now with Copilot also) and have AI explain your script for you. You can check out this video.

Use AI to help Document your AHK Scripts

Of course you can also use it to help you learn how to use tools and accomplish your goals.

The future truly is here!

Fixing Timing of your script

Don’t forget that, if you’re having issues with the timing of your script, you NEED to check this video out! We explain how you can make a minor tweak that will affect 48 AutoHotkey functions!

Fix AutoHotkey Timing Issues FAST with This Simple Trick!

Interrupting your AHK Scripts

During an AHK Hero call we discuss some of the cool ways to Suspend, Un-Suspend, and Pause your AutoHotkey scripts. I extracted the topic and put it in this video. We also discuss the #SuspendExempt directive.

Improving People’s Lives: Story #52

I recorded a short video for a client and used our Window Snipping tool. While he loved the work we did, he also so just how powerful (and easy to use) the Snipping tool is.

BTW I also had a cool idea. Why not incorporate AI into the tool and have it auto-redact personal information.

I manually uploaded an image to Chat GPT to see how it would work. It did an amazing job!

Is this something you’d be interested in❓

If so, let me know and we’ll try and get it done sooner rather than later.
