Key Implementation Notes

• ExecutionPolicy Bypass is required — PowerShell blocks .ps1 scripts by default. Bypass only affects this specific script file, not system policy.
• No admin needed — uses only user-level Win32 APIs (SetForegroundWindow, ShowWindow) and Windows Automation API.
• Clipboard activation trick — solves the Windows clipboard issue when source and target are the same window.
• Contact name via clipboard — SendKeys cannot type Chinese characters; workaround is to copy to clipboard and Ctrl+V.
