Who told you it should? And why? If you want use sending a key for some UI development, this is a big misconception. If you try to use it in some kind of remote service, this mechanism is too weak to bother about it.

If you explain your ultimate purpose, perhaps I would be able to give you better advice.

Have a look at the note on http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.sendkeys.send.aspx[^] if you are using Vista.

"The SendKeys class has been updated for the .NET Framework 3.0 to enable its use in applications that run on Windows Vista. The enhanced security of Windows Vista (known as User Account Control or UAC) prevents the previous implementation from working as expected. "
