Script crashes windows

[Balaji4u]

Hi ,

I am new to autoit and started off with some examples . I wrote a script to open a word pad and write some text and close it .

My script looks like this.

Run ("wordpad.exe")

WinWaitActive("Document - WordPad")

Send("Hello.")

WinClose("Document - WordPad")

WinWaitActive("Wordpad", "Do you want to save")

Send("!n")

Now this looks fine to me , but not to windows. It literally crashes the task Bar nothing functions .

Any idea whats wrong ?. Even just using "Run" command to open a notepad or a word pad doesnt work .

ShellExecute("wordpad.exe")
WinWaitActive("Document - WordPad")
Send("Hello.")
WinClose("Document - WordPad")
WinWaitActive("WordPad")
Send("!n")
