run a autoit exe

[zxcvbnm 0]

can I run a autoit exe when I find a application listed in 'Task Manager Windows'?

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.

Regards,

Hannes

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.

I think the "Applications" tab in Task Manager uses processes' windows. Try using the window title and check "WinGetTitle".

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 2

Matches any substring in the title.

In this mode a window titled Untitled - Notepad would be matched by "Untitled - Notepad", "Untitled", "Notepad", "pad", etc.
