Time is precious. You are bound with a lot of tasks in day-to-day life where you need to perform a different tasks daily to learn new. You just can't be repeating the same tasks forever that really ruins your precious time. We always require a macro that runs automatically specific tasks on recording it once. Some might have used macros in Microsoft Office packages or you may even might have heard about iMacros for Mozilla Firefox if you were an avid internet user. This helps to automate tasks on Windows just like iMacros which is only for the automation of tasks which you do on the browser.
What is a Macro?
Macro is a single instruction that can be used to repeat a large set of instructions when a user needs to perform those large amount often. It is used in lot of applications. If you are a Photoshop expert, you might have used Macros or, if you are an Assemble programmer, you quite often might use the Macros to repeat some set of instructions. As an avid internet user, I have used the iMacros Add-on for Firefox.
Why to Automate Tasks on Windows?
Imagine, you need to copy some data from your browser to an Excel sheet. The website, with reason to protect privacy shows you only one data at a time. In this case, you need to copy the data one by one into the Excel sheet. This could waste your entire time. What if, you can automate this task by making your computer to learn once? This is why, macros are used.
You don't have to worry about the massive data to work with if you are repeating the same task in order to achieve something out of it.
