Disable user input while executing automation code

I want to run some C# code from a separate process (separate from MS 365 Excel) operating on an (MS 365) Excel process.

Thus out-of-process automation.

Is it possible to absolutely disable any Excel user input while the code is running? (preferably without making the Excel app invisible)

    Perhaps I just found it, looks like the Application.Interactive property is meant for exactly this.
