For XP computers, this joke is even more interesting.
Note: on Windows 7 and above you also need to disable UAC or they will get a prompt.
3. Plug the wireless USB mouse, keyboard into the desktop
This is more effective for desktop computers because you can hide the wireless mouse or keyboard receiver behind their computer and then type characters or move the mouse. Your friend will see the mouse move naturally and characters appear without them touching the keyboard. It’s like ghosts do. If you do it right, you can play with it for a long time without being detected. The great thing is that this works for most computers including ones that are always locked.
If they have a laptop and a wireless mouse, you can simply replace the wireless mouse with one that looks exactly like it, as it won’t work with their computer. They will think the mouse is out of battery and you can move the mouse pointer around the screen with their mouse.
4. Move desktop icons, take screenshot and set it as wallpaper
You’ve probably done this already, simple joke but extremely annoying. You can do it one of three ways:
– Take a screenshot of the desktop with icons and set it as wallpaper, then hide all desktop icons.
– Move desktop icons around or create fake icons, take a screenshot and then set it as wallpaper. This way some icons work and some don’t.
– Take a screenshot of the desktop and hide the taskbar at the bottom of the screen before setting the wallpaper (this only works on XP), you can even flip the image upside down before setting it as desktop .
5. Use the spacebar to write the word SPACE
This is a clever prank that makes someone’s computer type the word “SPACE” every time they press the spacebar. They will be confused because they do not know what is going on. And the way to do it couldn’t be simpler.
Just create an AutoHotkey script, then copy and paste the following two lines of code – the first is to hide the “tray” icon and the second sets the hotkey to replace it with text.
#NoTrayIcon
*Space::Send,SPACE
You should right-click on the script and compile it into an executable before putting it on someone’s computer. Just paste it somewhere on their computer and boot.
