etirta 0 Posted December 7, 2010 Hi, I tried to automate VMware Player 3 installation, but WinWaitActive fail to hook to the installation window. It only work if I match the window title, such as WinWaitActive('VMware Player Setup'), but this is not specific enough. I tried: AutoItSetOption('WinDetectHiddenText', 1) WinWaitActive('VMware Player Setup') Local $sText = WinGetText('[active]') MsgBox(0,'',$sText) And $sText contains an empty string. Setting WinDetectHiddenText does not seems to help. VMware Player 3 installation can be obtained for free from www.vmware.com. Please help. Thx //Edo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
