zxcvbnm 0 Posted February 8, 2011 can I run a autoit exe when I find a application listed in 'Task Manager Windows'? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hannes08 39 Posted February 8, 2011 Hello zxcvbnm, you will have to watch the list of running processes and run the exe if a specific process exists. Have a look at ProcessExists in the helpfile. As far as I know there is no way to setup a scheduled task that runs if a specific process exists.

zxcvbnm 0 Posted February 8, 2011 I mean not a process in 'process', I refer to 'applications' in Task Manager cause the process is always running, but I need to exec an autoit prog when a popup of a particular application opens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FichteFoll 1 Posted February 8, 2011 I think the "Applications" tab in Task Manager uses processes' windows. Try using the window title and check "WinGetTitle". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zxcvbnm 0 Posted February 8, 2011 Thanks...I think also: WinActive problems with 'Title' , It's possible to use a funcion on the title string...I mean like "begin with"..? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoHanatCent 13 Posted February 9, 2011 Thanks...I think also: WinActive problems with 'Title' , It's possible to use a funcion on the title string...I mean like "begin with"..?Try AutoIt help:Window Titles and Text (Advanced)Mode 2Matches any substring in the title.In this mode a window titled Untitled - Notepad would be matched by "Untitled - Notepad", "Untitled", "Notepad", "pad", etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
