How to run an application when the computer is locked. I want to perform system maintainence when the computer is locked.

He may think it is, but it is not.
Applications do not quit / stop when you lock a computer.

No, it does not quit but it stops processing.
Like if I want to search and backup a few files when the computer is locked. Or I want to run an automated test on an application when the PC is locked.
Because I made a automation program that basically sends a series of keyboard and mouse events to the application I want to test. But the events stop processing when the computer is locked.

OF Course, the KEYBOARD is locked. You need to use another mechanism for controlling your application.

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice; in practice there is.

Re: Keep application running when computer locked
So the lock basically means keyboard and mouse is locked but not the running processes. So are all mouse messages and keyboard messages are also blocked? Like SendMessage(WM_LBUTTONCLICK) etc?
Is there a way to get around this as I don't want anyone disturbing the automated test(The reason I want it locked).
