How to Clear Discord Messages on Windows

F1::
    Toggle := !Toggle
    loop {
        if not Toggle
            break
        if WinExist(“ahk_exe discord.exe”)
            WinActivate
        SendInput {Up}
        Sleep 100
        SendInput {Up}
        Sleep 100
        SendInput ^a
        Sleep 100
        SendInput {Backspace}
        Sleep 100
        SendInput {Enter}
        Sleep 100
        SendInput {Enter}
        Sleep 100
        SendInput {WheelUp}
        Sleep 200
    }
    return
end::
{
msgbox, ended
  	exitapp
}

After programming, the F1 key serves as the toggle to enable or disable the message deletion. If you feel this script is behaving strangely, try to increase the value by 50. (e.g., Sleep 150)
