events - How I can send mouse click in powershell?

Question

How I can send mouse click on this position with this code. I want my mouse to go there and click.

[System.Windows.Forms.Cursor]::Position = New-Object System.Drawing.Point($xposi,$yposi)

If you don't feel like writing your own function, the Windows Automation Snapin for Powershell has a Send-Click function. Alternatively you can import some functionality from the windows API using mouse_event although I would recommend SendInput as it supersedes mouse_event. Below is a fully functional sample that uses P/Invoke to get the functionality you want and send a left click to a specified screen coordinate.

    public int        type; // 0 = INPUT_MOUSE,
                            // 1 = INPUT_KEYBOARD
                            // 2 = INPUT_HARDWARE
    public MOUSEINPUT mi;
}
