I'm in trouble with this expression

I don't know how It should be written in a autoit script,

in a .vbs I only need this:

Set WshShell = CreateObject(“Wscript.Shell”)
WshShell.Run “Rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks” 

and execute as myVBS.vbs $iniread[$j][1]

but in autoit syntax I got the error

what I wrote:

Run($WshShell.run & " " & '"Rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks"' & " " & $iniread[$j][1]

the error:

The requested action with this object has failed.:
Run($WshShell.run & " " & '"Rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks"' & " " & $iniread[$j][1])
Run($WshShell.run ^ ERROR

sorry if something like this was already answered

EDIT: I set the $WshShell like this: $WshShell = ObjCreate("Wscript.Shell")

in this way don't give me a error but stays without working

$WshShell.run ("Rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks" & $iniread[$j][1])

First, why are you using WshShell.Run instead of just using Run? Second, did you create the object for WshShell in your script?

using the run would be something like: Run($WshShell "Rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks")?

I added the object in the topic EDIT...

No, using run would be something like Run("C:WindowsSystem32rundll32.exe" & " advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks").

If you wanted to directly convert that VBScript to AutoIt, you would do this.

Global $WshShell = ObjCreate("Wscript.Shell")
$WshShell.Run("Rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks")
