You said to find which windll functions are used. As far as I can
tell, here are all of them:
def ActivateWindow(hWindow):
KERNEL32 = ctypes.windll.KERNEL32
GetCurrentThreadId = KERNEL32.GetCurrentThreadId
USER32 = ctypes.windll.USER32
AttachThreadInput = USER32.AttachThreadInput
BringWindowToTop = USER32.BringWindowToTop
GetForegroundWindow = USER32.GetForegroundWindow
GetWindowThreadProcessId = USER32.GetWindowThreadProcessId
ShowWindow=USER32.ShowWindow
#rest of function, using the above methods
