Impossible to switch between Windows tabs

[TeslaReloaded]

While ClickFix v4.0.0 is running it's impossible to switch between taskbar tabs by clicking them while some windiows are open (task manager or powershell, for example). ALT+TAB works fine, but clicking on the tabs does nothing.
I'm using Windows 10.

I figured out the same (Windows 11).

Prozedure:
1: Open Explorer or a browser
2: Open Taskmanager
3: Try to switch between the applications using mouseclick
-> does not work
4: Quit "clickfix"
5: Try to switch between the applications using Mouseclick
-> works

How to Debounce Mouse Clicks Using AutoHotkey

I switched to "AutoHotkey" instead of this (dead) "clickfix" to face this problem.

Step 1: Download and Install AutoHotkey

• Download AutoHotkey from https://www.autohotkey.com/.
• Run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions to install the program.

Step 2: Create the Script File

• Open a text editor like Notepad or Notepad++.
• Create a new file and save it as clickDebounce.ahk. Make sure the file extension is .ahk.

Step 3: Edit the Script

• Open the clickDebounce.ahk file in your text editor.
• Copy and paste the following script into the file:

---

#Requires AutoHotkey >=2.0- <2.1

~LButton:: {
static LastClickTime := 0
static ClickDifference := 0
static MinimalClicktime := 40
static MaximalClicktime := 200

ClickDifference := A_TickCount - LastClickTime

if (ClickDifference < MinimalClicktime) {
    ; Debounce the click
    Click("up") ; Suppress the original event
    return
}
else if (ClickDifference > MaximalClicktime) {
    ; Allow single click through
    return
}
else if (ClickDifference > MinimalClicktime and ClickDifference < MaximalClicktime) {
    ; Handle double click
    Click("up") ; Suppress the original event
    Click("down")
    KeyWait("LButton")
    Click("up")
}

LastClickTime := A_TickCount

return

}

• Save the file after pasting the script.

Step 4: Run the Script to checkt if it works for you

• Double-click the clickDebounce.ahk file to run the script.
  -> You should see an AutoHotkey icon appear in your system tray, indicating the script is active.

Step 5: Add the Script to Startup (Optional)
If you want the script to run automatically every time you start your computer:

• Press Win + R, type shell:startup, and hit Enter. This will open the Startup folder.
• Copy the clickDebounce.ahk file into the Startup folder.
  -> Now, the script will automatically run each time you start your computer, ensuring your mouse clicks are debounced without any additional effort.

^Don't know why my text here is formated in this way. The script is between the long lines.

This problem/issue does not occur if ClickFix is ran with Administrator privileges.
