I have a Christmas gift to you, Jrv.

I keep trying  and its worked!!!!!!! I deleted some lines from old link and it's works man.

Please, don't try do it in Powershell ISE buttons. Try in a browser e.g.

Set the cursor position in chrome or iexplorer hyperlink e.g. and it will work

start iexplore.exe

#Set the average time to your system load and open an iexplorer page
Start-Sleep -Seconds 3

[system.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Windows.Forms") | out-null

# Set the exactly position of cursor in some iexplore hyperlink between the (open parenthesis) below: 
[System.Windows.Forms.Cursor]::Position = New-Object System.Drawing.Point(1240,489)

function Click-MouseButton
{
    $signature=@' 
      [DllImport("user32.dll",CharSet=CharSet.Auto, CallingConvention=CallingConvention.StdCall)]
      public static extern void mouse_event(long dwFlags, long dx, long dy, long cButtons, long dwExtraInfo);
'@ 

    $SendMouseClick = Add-Type -memberDefinition $signature -name "Win32MouseEventNew" -namespace Win32Functions -passThru 

        $SendMouseClick::mouse_event(0x00000002, 0, 0, 0, 0);
        $SendMouseClick::mouse_event(0x00000004, 0, 0, 0, 0);
}

Click-MouseButton

Enjoy it!

It cannot be done with PowerShell.  PowerShell does not yue mouse clicks.  It can onlybe done in forms.

Searched and came across this. Confirmed working on Windows 10, PowerShell 7.0.3. Also a lot less code than some other solutions
