🪟 Windows MCP Server for VS Code

Let GitHub Copilot control Windows applications. Click buttons, type text, toggle settings — all by name, not coordinates.

What Can Copilot Do?

Once installed, just ask:

  • "Click the Save button in Notepad"
  • "Type my email in the login field"
  • "Toggle Dark Mode in Settings"
  • "Move this window to my second monitor"
  • "Read the error message from that dialog"

How It Works

Most automation tools take screenshots and guess where to click. That fails when windows move, themes change, or DPI is different.

Windows MCP Server uses the Windows UI Automation API — the same API screen readers use. It finds buttons by name, not pixels. Deterministic and reliable.

For games and custom controls without accessibility data, full screenshot + mouse + keyboard support is included.


Key Features

  • 🧠 Semantic UI — Find elements by name. Works at any DPI, theme, or window position.
  • 📺 Multi-Monitor — Full support for multiple displays with per-monitor DPI scaling.
  • 💻 Broad App Support — Works with classic Windows apps, modern Windows 11 apps, and Electron apps.
  • 🔄 Full Fallback — Screenshot + mouse + keyboard for games and custom controls.
  • 🧪 LLM-Tested — Every tool tested with real AI models before release.

Requirements

  • Windows 10/11
  • .NET 10.0 Runtime (installed automatically)

⚠️ Caution

This extension allows Copilot to control your Windows desktop. Use responsibly.
