Hey All and Eid Mubarak 😇 🌝,

I was wondering if there is a way to automate tasks on my PC when I’m away from it?  
I have Windows 10 Home on my laptop and wanted to do certain tasks on websites in Chrome Browser when I’m away from my laptop [in locked mode] in set intervals (every 2 hours, etc.)  
Is there any script or program that can help me achieve that?

Thanks in advance,

Eid Mubarak to you too.

As far as I know, there are several methods to automate tasks.

1. iMacros script.
2. Robotic Process Automation (RPA). For example: UIPath.
3. Python script.
4. Using browser extension.

It all depends to your need.

Using one of tools mentioned do you know if it would be possible to automate the installation and cracking of a software product for example. AutoCAD  
And can it run in the background during work session of a “non admin” user.
