Library to send mouse and key Inputs

I have a project where i need to send Mouse and Key Inputs on a Global level from my WindowsForms application. I need somethig like https://www.nuget.org/packages/H.InputSimulator#readme-tab, the only problem ive got with this library is that once i send the key i cant get it to be held down, a crucial point of the project is that i need to simulate the held down key for a small amount of time (for example if i hold the key down for 2 seconds i get: lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll). Does anyone know a library that is able to do that or know a way to do that with the given library?

✅ How to Update the original instance of my Main Form from another form

I have a Function i'd Like to call from my Mainform and from my second form( the function updates a listbox an my Mainform), to achieve that i created a new instance of my Mainform in my second form, but it apears to only update the listbox on the new Instance of my Main form not on the old one, how can i Update the listbox on the Original Mainform instance. (i apollogize for my bad english) This is the Function id Like to call that should update the listbox on my Mainform

public void showMacro() //Funktion die alle Dateien im macro Pfad in einer ListBox auflistet
{
    MessageBox.Show("test");
    if (Directory.Exists(macroPath))
    {
        string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(macroPath);
        ltxMacroShowCase.Items.Clear();

        foreach (string macro in files)
        {
            ltxMacroShowCase.Items.Add(Path.GetFileName(macro));
        }
    }
}

public void showMacro() //Funktion die alle Dateien im macro Pfad in einer ListBox auflistet
{
    MessageBox.Show("test");
    if (Directory.Exists(macroPath))
    {
        string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(macroPath);
        ltxMacroShowCase.Items.Clear();

        foreach (string macro in files)
        {
            ltxMacroShowCase.Items.Add(Path.GetFileName(macro));
        }
    }
}

This is the Button from my second form that i use to call my function on the first Form.

private void btnOkay_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    try
    {
        Form1 f1 = new Form1();

        File.WriteAllText(Path.Combine(Form1.macroPath, txbNameInput.Text), "");
        f1.showMacro();
        this.Close();   //erfolgreiches erstellen der macro Datei

    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("this is not a valid Name! " + ex.Message);
        return;
    }
}

private void btnOkay_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    try
    {
        Form1 f1 = new Form1();

        File.WriteAllText(Path.Combine(Form1.macroPath, txbNameInput.Text), "");
        f1.showMacro();
        this.Close();   //erfolgreiches erstellen der macro Datei

    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("this is not a valid Name! " + ex.Message);
        return;
    }
}

            Hotkeys.Init(comboBox1);
        }

        protected override void WndProc(ref Message hotkey)
        {
            bool Visible = this.Visible;
            base.WndProc(ref hotkey);

            if(Visible && hotkey.Msg == 0x0312) 
            {
                textBox1.Text += hotkey.Msg.ToString() + "\n\r";
                //MessageBox.Show("Global Hotkey Pressed");
            }
        }

        private void comboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Hotkeys.SetHotKey(comboBox1, Handle);
        }
