Hi,

How can i detect a change in my system???

Some examples???

Thanks a lot!!!

If you want to monitor just one folder, then this topic is probably relevant. For a larger scale you might be better of using something like this. (Actually the second link is a better way to do it if you ask me, but it's also more complicated.)

This question has been bothering me for a long time.

Tvern:Those script you mentioned do not support monitoring subdiretories.

There is a great function in Autohotkey forum named WatchDiretory() which can monitor filesystem with many options.

Here is the function:WatchDirectory().zip

Here is the original topic:WatchDiretory()

It will be greatly appreciated if someone could translate this function from Autohotkey to Autoit.

Someone made a similar autoit script like this: [NOW WORKING] a (broken) monitor file changes script which uses ReadDirectoryChangeW

But it's not an independant funtion and is not as flexible as WatchDiretory().
