Krypt Macro Guide: Free Mouse & Keyboard Macro Recorder

• Record and replay mouse moves, clicks, the wheel and the keyboard, at 0.05× to 50× speed, looped a set number of times or forever.
• Visual editor: drag-and-drop steps, a per-step inspector, on-screen coordinate and region pickers, and inserts for waits, random sleeps, clicks, typed text, key presses, program launches, comments and toasts.
• Find things on screen: findImage / clickImage / waitImage match a captured picture, and findText / clickText / waitText read the screen with offline OCR.
• Control flow and variables: if, else, loop, while, break, continue, goto, plus variables and expressions.
• Scripting: an AutoHotkey-style language with live error checking and starter templates.
• Scheduling: on an interval, daily at a time on chosen weekdays, or once at a set date and time.
• Humanization (off by default): coordinate jitter, varied click timing, typing cadence and curved mouse movement.
• AI steps (opt-in, your own key): send OCR'd text, the clipboard or a variable to Anthropic, OpenAI or a compatible endpoint, then type or store the reply.
• Sharing: export a .kmacro file or a share code.

Krypt Macro runs on Windows 10 and 11.

1. Open the Krypt Macro page on krypt.cc. That page is the only official download; copies re-uploaded elsewhere can be modified.
2. Click the Windows download button.
3. Read and accept the Software Download Terms in the prompt. The file downloads as soon as you agree, and you won't be asked again for that tool until the terms change.
4. Optional but sensible: upload the file to VirusTotal before you run it.

Windows

1. Run the installer you downloaded.
2. If Windows SmartScreen says "Windows protected your PC", click More info, then Run anyway. Krypt builds aren't code-signed yet, so SmartScreen treats them as unrecognised apps. That warning is about the missing signature, not about anything it found in the file.
3. Follow the installer, then launch Krypt Macro from the Start menu or the desktop shortcut.

Some antivirus products flag input-automation tools by heuristic, because simulating clicks and keys is exactly what they do. The source is public if you want to check it.

1. Press F6 to start recording.
2. Do the thing you want automated.
3. Press F6 again to stop.
4. Press F7 to replay it. F8 stops playback.

All three hotkeys can be rebound. There's also a video walkthrough of recording, editing and replaying.

A recorded macro is a snapshot of one screen. A different resolution, DPI scaling, a moved window or an app update can all throw clicks off. To make a macro survive those:

• Target by image or text, not coordinates. clickImage and clickText find the button wherever it is. The editor warns you when a macro is coordinate-only.
• Wait for things to appear. Use waitImage or waitText instead of a fixed sleep, so the macro waits exactly as long as the app needs and stops cleanly if something never shows up.
• Turn on "skip mouse moves" for macros where the path between clicks doesn't matter. They replay instantly and break less.
• Prefer keyboard shortcuts to clicking menus where an app has them.
• Test at low speed first, then speed it up once it works.

Schedule a macro to run on an interval, daily at a set time on chosen weekdays, or once at a specific date and time. Krypt Macro closes to the system tray instead of quitting and can start with Windows straight to the tray. Schedules only fire while the app is running (the tray counts), and a scheduled run never overlaps one that's already going.

• Corner failsafe: slam the cursor into any screen corner mid-run and playback stops immediately. Any keys or buttons left held down are released.
• Runaway guards: a step ceiling (and an optional time ceiling) stop a macro that loops forever by mistake.
• Import consent: a shared macro that runs programs, opens links or loads remote images is held unsaved until you've read a plain-English list of everything it touches.
• AI steps send nothing until you add your own key, and keys are encrypted at rest and never included in exported macros.

• Use the optional always-on-top status pill to see when a macro is running.
• Break long automations into smaller macros you can test separately.
• Keep a backup of anything a macro edits until you trust it.
• On a slow PC, add waits before steps that depend on an app loading. Or speed the PC up with Krypt Tweaker.
