Auto Key Presser for Games

How to use Auto Key Presser

Follow the steps given below to start using the Auto Key Presser. The Key Presser saves all the settings automatically, and hence, when using the software again, the procedure to configure the software will require a lesser number of steps.

1. Download Auto Key Presser and install it by following the simple and easy-to-follow steps. During installation, you will be prompted to decide whether you want to have a desktop shortcut created or not. The Auto Key Presser setup also creates shortcuts to launch the software from the Programs menu.
2. Double-click on the Auto Key Presser desktop shortcut or launch the software from the Programs menu. The Auto Key Presser should open up as displayed in the screenshot.
3. Select the keyboard key that you want the software to press and release automatically. There are two drop-downs near the Key to Automate label on the software with which you can select individual keys or combination keys like Ctrl + a, Shift + 1, etc.
4. Now assign a keyboard shortcut to start or stop automatic key pressing. To assign the keyboard shortcut, locate the white-colored edit box with None written on it, click on None, press a keyboard shortcut (e.g. F6, Ctrl + W, etc.), and then click on the button Save Shortcut Key.
5. Review or edit the time delay between consecutive key presses. This allows you to control the speed at which the selected keyboard key is pressed and released.
6. Configure the number of times you want the keyboard key to be pressed and released. In case you want the Auto Key Presser to keep on pressing and releasing the keyboard key an infinite number of times, enter 0 in the Number of Keys to Automate edit control.
7. Now minimize the Auto Key Presser software application or hide it to the notification area. Now focus on the game or application to which you want to send automated keyboard keys, and press the keyboard shortcut configured in the Auto Key Presser software earlier.

Note: When you are sending keystrokes to a game or application launched with admin access, you must launch Auto Key Presser with admin access. Two different desktop shortcuts are created by the setup to allow you to easily launch Auto Key Presser with and without administrator access.
