Monitor And Automatically Close Windows

Click Off is a lightweight Windows application that can be used to automate a few tasks in Windows. Its three main functions are to automatically click a button, to automatically close a window and to automatically fill in text in a form.

Usage for most operations relies on the keyboard shortcut [CTRL ALT D] which has to be pressed when the window is active or when the mouse is hovering over the element that should be clicked on. This can be used for instance to automatically close popup windows or to check radioboxes on an Internet page.

Automatically adding text to a form on the other hand requires some additional work. Pressing the keyboard shortcut while hovering the mouse over the text field will add it to the program’s list of items. A double-click on the entry will provide options to enter the desired text for the form.

Please note that the program does not work with all program windows, buttons or forms. This is usually the case if the button or text field have not been created from the windows standard libraries. There is unfortunately no fix for that.

Clickoff uses roughly 5 Megabytes of computer memory. There is no information about system compatibility. It ran fine on a Windows XP Service Pack 3 test system. The website of the program is in German. Just scroll down to the bottom and click on the Download link to download the file. The program itself is available with a German and English interface.
