Use win key

[PDLayus]

Hi everyone,

Im writing a small script to create a new folder just by pressing win + n. The problem is when the script press win + n (#n), start menu opens.

Here is the code:

HotKeySet("#n", "create_folder")
Func create_folder()
    Send("{ALT down}")
    Send("{f}")
    Send("{w}")
    Send("{f}")
    Send("{ALT up}")
    Send("{BACKSPACE}")
EndFunc
sleep(50000)

Another problem is I want it to working as a service. But now it is *.exe file. Could you explain me how to create a service from *.exe file?

Thanks in advance.

This works fine on Vista Busi 32bit:

HotKeySet("#n", "_WinN")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_Quit")

While 1
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

Func _WinN()
    ConsoleWrite("Win-n detected..." & @LF)
EndFunc

Func _Quit()
    Exit
EndFunc

What version of AutoIt on what version of Windows are you running?

Running as a service is covered in the FAQ.
