Hi again
I am totally new to autoit,so sorry about asking stupid questions

The thing I am trying to do is to close an internet explorer window
So the code should be like this:

WinClose ( " Internet Explorer " )

But it won't work,and internet explorer won't close

What's the problem?

See WinTitleMatchMode in AutoitSetOption.
The title is not "Internet Explorer" I guess, that is only a part of the title.

Maybe It wont Be the title(or maybe the starting) of your Internet Explorer

You can try it out with CLASS or You can use Process Close / Kill

Example

If WinExists('[CLASS:IEFrame]') Then ;to find the Class Use Autoit v3 Window Tool
WinClose('[CLASS:IEFrame]','')
Local $x=ProcessClose('iexplore.exe');If Unable to close the Window then Close the Process
If $x=0 Then WinKill('[CLASS:IEFrame]','');If Unable to close iexplore.exe then Kill the Window
EndIf

Thumbs Up If it Helps u out

Thanks for the code
Now I have another question
What exactly is the title of a window?
Isn't it the one that is shown in the tasks section of the taskmanager?
For example if I navigate to my router in IE I will see this in the taskmanager:
Dsl router - Windows Internet Explorer
Isn't this the title?(I tried this one too,but it didn't work)

[somdcomputerguy]

Dsl router - Windows Internet Explorer
Isn't this the title?(I tried this one too,but it didn't work)

Yes. Setting WinTitleMatchMode (as suggested earlier) to 2 will match just the phrase 'Internet Explorer' in that whole title string, and that will probably resolve this issue.

I got it now
Thanks for the help guys
