Win Get Path function?

[bairacdn2005]

I need to set the workingdir to the currently active folder in Explorer in Win7 and it's required full path

I tried to find a way to get the full path but didn't success. So I went up here and found this topic (It's been closed)

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=28189

Gary has posted this func

Func _WinGetPath($Title = "",$Text="", $strComputer = 'localhost')

However its required those three parameters which I don't know how to get them, mostly the computer name. Is there anyway to use script to retrieve those parameters? I think I can only do with the title thou

// and it's already been like four years so I wonder is this Win Get Path function has been developed and included in autoIT the current version?

edit:

I also notice that we can set display full path on title bar and retrieve it from there but not all the users have this configed so it wouldn't be a good solution (I don't have it config that way either)

I know a super easy way to find out The Help File

Func _WinGetPath($Title = "",$Text="", $strComputer = 'localhost')

Only the first value is required. The other two can be omitted and it should still work. The call is in the same script segment

$a_path = _WinGetPath('Untitled - Notepad','', 'localhost')

Or this would also work

$a_path = _WinGetPath('Untitled - Notepad')
