If you want to block the Key board and mouse input reaching your application then use BlockInput API [^]

i wrote like this #include <iostream> #include <windows.h> #include <winable.h> using namespace std; int main() { BlockInput(true); Sleep(5000); return 0; } its working fine for 5000ms only. but my motto is to unlock the system while i press esc key. how to do this? plz help.

BlockInput itself is done to block any keyboard event till some action is over. So how can it be possible to click of ESC to work?
