I know AppleScript fairly well, and what I don’t know I can usually Google and find examples and accomplish my goals. Figuring out how to use LEP and the osascript command opened up a lot of doors for integrating 4D with things on macOS. Finder in particular. But with it you can remote control many applications on macOS. On the Windows side it’s PowerShell scripts, BAT files and VBA scripts that can make magic happen. But I’m weak in that area. And Googling returns 100 times more examples that you have to wade through to find the good ones. So please do send your Windows solution for showing the Runtime Explorer. Now I do the steps manually on Windows, no full auto mode like this method on macOS.
