Pyautogui doesn't click windows privacy settings


I want to create a simple python script that enables and disables windows camera and mic settings when i have a zoom meeting. But pyautogui doesnt seem to move and click the On/Off switch in windows privacy settings.

It doesn't click the final button [in red]

Code

import pyautogui
import time

# Clicks windows open settings then open privacy settings all that.

pyautogui.moveTo(x=372, y=265)
pyautogui.click()

enter image description here


Solution

  • Run your script with Administrative privileges.

    If you are running your script via CMD/Powershell then run CMD/Powershell with administrative privileges.
