restart/rehook processes that lose mouse-hook

[MainTrane]

Using Win7Pro (64-bit) a lot of programs (usually 32-bit) that establish a hook into the mouse lose this ability after a while.

Why their hook into the mouse breaks? I don't know; but it would be great if there were a program that could automatically restart (or preferably rehook) these programs, once they lose their mouse-hook.

thanks for this incredible program Jeremy,

I will have to think about the implementation. The same applies for Keyboard hooks, and also for other types of hooks (some that mask as that type of hook as a method of DLL injection into the process to hook APIs and other things). Anyway, restarting a process like that is fine, and might go along with the category of 'restart when the shell restarts'. A new possible option.

Thanks for the reply, and the willingness to look into this issue.
I'd really look forward to something that solves these lost hook problems .
