Macronize, a macro builder and recorder Files

Macronize, a precise macro builder to automate the programs on your Windows computer

To install, download Macronize64Setup.exe and run it. When you get the Windows Defender SmartScreen popup, click More info and then Run anyway to install Macronize.

Anti-game cheating and anti-virus software may prevent you from installing or using Macronize. In general they don't like macro programs and try to protect you from them.
And due to the programming language Macronize is written in, AutoIt, your anti-virus software may think there's a virus in Macronize but this is a false positive.

Manual.chm is the Macronize manual. It uses Microsoft's HTML Help viewer (hh.exe) which must work properly (have enough rights). 
If it doesn't, you can also use the HTML manual (htmlmanual.zip). Unzip in a folder and open up index.htm.
