Visit AutoIt

AutoIt is a freeware scripting language for Windows that automates tasks through simulated keystrokes, mouse movement and window manipulation. It provides a BASIC-like syntax for general scripting alongside GUI automation, and the project site also hosts deployment-related tools, documentation and utilities.

The site provides the AutoIt scripting language, an AutoIt Script Editor, downloads and release notes, with recent releases including v3.3.18.0. Deployment-related tools include GImageX, which is built for use with the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK) for Windows 8.1. The site also covers SmartScreen with AutoIt files and installers, Group Policy, ImageX and related deployment topics.

AutoIt is aimed at Windows users and administrators who need to automate desktop applications, scripts and deployment workflows. The pages describe AutoIt as freeware and do not specify paid editions, seat-based licensing, usage-based pricing or a trial.
