Keep Active

KeepActive is a CLI program written in C that helps me keep a specified window active on Windows. It's particularly useful for applications or games that require constant active window to not get muted. (e.g. CounterSide)

Requirements

• Windows
• GCC compiler with pthreads support

Compilation

To compile the program, use the following command:

gcc -o KeepActive.exe KeepActive.c -lpthread -lws2_32

Make sure you have GCC installed and properly set up in your system PATH.

Usage

1. Run the compiled program:

   .\KeepActive
   

   This will start the program with the default window name "CounterSide".

2. To specify a custom window name, use the -w flag followed by the window name:

   .\KeepActive -w "Your Window Name"
   

3. Once the program is running, you can use the following commands:

   • Type 1 and press Enter to start keeping the window active
   • Type 0 and press Enter to stop keeping the window active
   • Type q and press Enter to quit the program
