It’s already Day 20 of TechPP Mega Christmas Giveaway. We are through two-third of this campaign and looking back, it has been a wonderful journey and I must thank you all for the kind support you have given and I wish for more and more support and encouragement in the coming days! Today, we have possibly the best and most popular task automating software for Windows – WinAutomation v3 Professional edition!
WinAutomation allows you to record repetitive steps and allow you to execute all of them within one single click. This greatly helps to increase productivity in work. Whether it’s routine file backup, maintaining your PC or just trying to mass rename images, you can pre-program and have them done in seconds. WinAutomation come with more than 130 predefined actions to handle some generally used task. It’s just awesome.
WinAutomation simplifies the code writing with nicely designed and user-friendly interface so that all the repetitive tasks can be automated, minimizing all the manual and non-productive boring repetitive tasks in daily life.
For every repetitive tasks you have done every day, regardless of simple or complex, it will able to automate tasks in minutes without the need of writing any single script. Check out the screenshot below to get an idea about WinAutomation tasks available.
You can create jobs to automate file operations and FTP transfers, import/export data to Excel, send emails, connect to and query databases and much more, without having to write a single line of code. For the novice user, WinAutomation includes an intelligent Macro Recorder that allows you to record and replay mouse and keyboard actions at any speed.
WinAutomation also includes an integrated debugger, a job scheduler and triggers that monitor your computer and execute jobs as needed. The Pro edition allows you to compile jobs into .Net exe files that you can run on different computers without having WinAutomation installed.
WinAutomation – Features
The major features of the application are:
- Visual Job Designer – A completely visual editor that lets you build tasks by dragging and dropping predefined actions.
- Plenty of Predefined Actions – More than 130 versatile and powerful predefined actions that act as building blocks for your tasks.
- Macro Recorder – It lets you record mouse and keyboard events as you perform them and converts them into actions that you can later replay at any speed.
- Variables - WinAutomation includes full support for variables that are used to pass data from an action to another.
- Flow Control, Conditionals, Loops – Full support for flow control structures is included, ranging from the simple GoTo action to IF/ELSE constructs and of course loops that can iterate a list, repeat a block of actions a number of times or until a condition changes.
- Integrated Debugger – The debugger lets you enable and disable actions, watch each action as it executes, set breakpoints to pause execution, execute the job action by action and at the same time inspect the variables’ values and system changes.
- Exception Handling – With WinAutomation you have the choice to catch the exceptions and implement additional logic into your jobs to handle them.
- Image Recognition – WinAutomation implements Image Recognition technology that “sees” what’s on the screen and can either wait for a specific image to appear, or move the mouse and click on a specific image.
- Task Scheduler – A powerful task scheduler that allows you to schedule any job on a daily, weekly, monthly or arbitrary schedule.
- Triggers – WinAutomation includes a complete set of triggers that you may set to constantly monitor you system and execute jobs at specific events.
- Event Log – Every event related to WinAutomation is registered into its own event log.
- Compile to Exe – The Professional Edition includes a Job Compiler that lets you compile any job into a standalone .Net executable.

TechPP Verdict:
The user interface of WinAutomation is clear cut and simple, especially for users who use backup software or any jobs-based application before. Once you get the feel of creating new jobs and defining parameters through the drag-and-drop interface of the job editor, it’s easy to create basic processes, but there’s still a steep learning curve before you’ll be able to perform advanced automation tricks. The best thing is that no programming nor scripting required to create the automated process, significantly benefit non-advanced users. All in all, WinAutomation is a powerful, well-organized application that advanced users who want to create their own PC macros will appreciate.

This would be useful in organizing data into a spreadsheet. For example, I copy certain information such as name and email address which the email is under each name and there are about a hundred of them. In order to move all email address beside the name, I would use this tool to automate the keyboard. This is just one way of using this automation software. I was able to use a different automation software before, but just as trial.
I need this, please include me!
Give me one.
Thank you for the chance to receive this program. A terrific selection!
This software would save me some time in my daily tasks!
Happy holidays! ^^
Greetings,
I just recently found the techpp site and find it quite unique. I will be able to learn very much from this site. Thank you for creating and providing a very helpful site.
In this economy there are mostly people out to find away to get rich off the poor souls in this world that have a legit need for such apps to help improve their work on the computer.
In my case, having a simplified method to automate repetitive tasks would so appreciated.
I am disabled with a very modest disability income. There are many applications available that would help simply my use of the computer. Although I know the hard work involved in creating such wonderful and use applications. And I would be more than willy to purchase them to help them maintain and improve such products, I am left in a wanting state.
Besides December 15 was my 60th birthday. So if nothing else, it would be a great birthday gift.
Either way thanks to techpp for providing this opportunity for less fortunate people. It is great to see someone trying to help make a difference.
Happy Holidays to all.
Thanks for this offer.
Best Regards,
Yaser Sabbah

Please, count me in.

Thanks !
I would use to email potential JV partners and make it seem that I’m sending them a personal email, rather than a bulk email to everyone.
The personalization makes the potential JV partner feel that you took the time to visit their site and you are sending them a personal email, and they would be more inclined to answer you, rather than if you sent a bulk email with a template email.
Thanks,
Steve
