Lets talk about the reason... why would you try to HIDE the window at first, and the next thing you want to do is to SHOW it... ?

beats me.

Please post complete example, and your AutoIt version

[YogiBear]

second that. Also, can you duplicate your experience on a different PC? In many cases the issue is with the specific PC, not AutoIt.

[DeathRow]

This is on a Win7 x86 bit

Im going to try it on a x64 it ....

[YogiBear]

Works fine for me:

ShellExecute( "C:Windowsregedit.exe","","","open",@SW_HIDE)
Sleep(2000)
WinSetState( "Registry Editor","",@SW_SHOW)

Your problem was you had WinSetState configured wrong. There is no bug.

[YogiBear]

I copied and pasted your code into my editor. You then edited your post to show it corrected. I then made my post with the code corrected. You just happen to correct it in your post the same way I did. You then try to say you didn't make an error. Nice try.

I saw my fault before you posted it and I quickly edit it and then I saw that you posted it too.

ShellExecute( "C:Program FilesMozilla Firefoxfirefox.exe","www.google.com","","open",@SW_HIDE)

DeathRow,
By using
WinSetState( "Google - Mozilla Firefox","",@SW_SHOW)
you assert that FireFox will have this content in the window title, which implies that Firefox will have accessed the Internet successfully and loaded the default page (which you also assume to be Google). One or more of these assertions can easily be proven wrong at times for some reason.

[DeathRow]

Then ,open manually firefox and maximize it then close it and run this code:

ShellExecute( "C:Program FilesMozilla Firefoxfirefox.exe","www.google.com","","open",@SW_HIDE)

Then tell me if the window hided or not

Did you ever consider getting the handle of the window first and referencing that instead of the window's title?

Does WinSetState command supports handles?

[BrewManNH]

Does WinSetState command supports handles?

From the help file:

Window Handles / HWNDs

The variant datatype in AutoIt natively supports window handles (HWNDs). A window handle is a special value that windows assigns to a window each time it is created. When you have a handle you may use it in place of the title parameter in any of the function calls that use the title/text convention. The advantage of using window handles is that if you have multiple copies of an application open - which have the same title/text - you can uniquely identify them when using handles. When you use a window handle for the title parameter then the text parameter is completely ignored.
Various functions such as WinGetHandle, WinList and GUICreate return these handles. It is important to note that a window handle is not classed as a number or string - it is its own special type.

Note: Window handles will work no matter what WinTitleMatchMode is currently in use.

Why do people still think they can win? Do they not pay attention to the threads where I state we block tens of thousands of addresses? Do they not notice how hollow all the threats we receive end up ringing? Oh well.
