Im writing a simple app. Testing it on XP.

But when i send it to a friend he told me that it's not working on win7 and i started to testing it on win7.

I'd like to know about compatibility between autoit and win7 &vista.

What can i should do to make my app work or any other future autoit app ?

thnx a lot

There is such a wide variety that you can do with a script, you would have to narrow it down somewhat. The way XP handles sound management, for example, is very different than the way Vista or Windows 7 handles sound management. Or file locations for the users is different for XP and Vista/Windows 7. Give us some idea of what you are doing with code and we'll be glad to throw our 2 cents at you...really hard

In addition: You might want to find a painfull way to remind people that "it's not working" is not acceptable feedback.

You can help yourself by making informative error messages, or add a debug mode that shows what functions are called and perhaps what they return, but even without all this the minimal respons should be something like:

"It crashes before doing anything with error: xxxxx" or "The process loads, but nothing happens."

You could set up a multiboot, or virtual PC to test with different versions of windows before releasing, but my advise is just to invest in informative error messages and have a beta period.

Also: did your friend try running in compatibility mode?

I'm stupid!

My script run ok on win7 [OK]!!!

What happened!

I was running win7 from virtualbox but i hadn't configured display resolution to larger one... like 1024x800

and 800x600 was too small to show up the main window

so the GUI window was cutted in half.

Dummy Sp3cK apologises...

Sorry 4 flustering you... :x

And thnx for your fast replying
