Hi Dark, No, UI Automation wouldn't effect Dosbox one way or another because Dosbox doesn't use the Windows API which is precisely why it doesn't work in the first place. UI Automation is simply a bridge between Windows applications built using the standard Windows API and adaptive technologies such as screen readers. In order to make Dosbox work it has to be rewritten from the ground up using standard Windows GUI components which probably isn't going to happen any time soon.
