eg : if I press f12 dev toll is launched and need to select the Toggle Device Emulation. This need to be Scripted. Is there any possibilities ?

Solution

You can use PowerShell to open an Edge window, then use SendKeys to perform keystroke to open F12 dev tools and Toggle Device Emulation (Ctrl+Shift+M).

You can refer to the following sample code:

[system.Diagnostics.Process]::Start("msedge","https://www.bing.com/")

Sleep 3 
$wshell = New-Object -ComObject wscript.shell;
$wshell.AppActivate('Bing- Microsoft Edge') 
Sleep 1
$wshell.SendKeys('{F12}') 
Sleep 1
$wshell.SendKeys('^+{M}')
