So, I have an AutoHotKey (ahk) script that I want to use to enable/disable my mousepad (There is no option for me to "disable when external mouse detected".. Trust me I've looked), and it's the only thing people ever suggest (from all the googling I've done). So I've been looking for a macro replacement for it and I have a script that will/should do it.
The problem is, in the script it uses this command:
Run main.cpl ;Open Mouse Properties
Looks fine and dandy, after all, when I run it through console (or go to it through control panel directly), it opens up mouse properties like it's supposed to. But when the script does it it opens up a completely different window that I can't seem to access any other way. The script opens up the window on the left, and doing it ANY other way opens up the one on the right (I need it to open the one on the right). Does anybody have any ideas why it does it?

You'll notice both are Mouse Properties windows... But the one on the right actually has a tab for my touchpad, and the one on the left has nothing... My script will work properly if it opens the one on the right, but I can't figure out how to do it..
