Running UI testcases even if screen is locked

Hi, is it possible to run the UI testcases even if the screen is locked ? I received an error stating that the operation cannot be performed. I am running my test cases(for testing a desktop application) on a remote desktop, and due to company policy, the system will lock after a certain period. This issue prevents me from running the test cases overnight.

    No. This is not possible. Point.

    This is not a limitation of TestComplete but fundamental behavior of Windows OS.
