BrokenWindow

BrokenWindow is designed to investigate all the properties of a window in Windows OS we can access. Everything which can be changed outside of the window and Windows Kernel is allowed to be changed within the app.

Some changes can even break the window's look or behavior and it is completely on user's own (so you are free to shoot your own leg).

Features

    • States (minimized/maximied, enabled/disabled, etc.)
    • Name
    • Position/size

  • Post/Send window messages to a window. Including custom messages generated by RegisterWindowMessage.

  • Almost every thing in the app has its own help URL to MSDN so you could understand what exactly you are doing.
