hi,i'm new to autoit, i'm looking for code a simple script.

i have a windows open in the desktop, so this script need to check, when this windows get closed and so run an .exe (this exe it's anoter script that will reopen the window), and again in loop.

What do you have so far? I have this >>

ShellExecute("Notepad.exe") ; <<<<< Test using Notepad.
Sleep(500) ; <<<<< Wait for Notepad to Start.
While WinExists("[CLASS:Notepad]") ; <<<<< Use AU3Info Tool in SciTE > Tools to get the CLASS name of the window.
    Sleep(100) ; Sleep  Wait.
WEnd
Sleep(500) ; <<<<< Wait for Notepad to Exit.
Global $PID = Run("Notepad.exe") ; <<<<< Change to your EXE File.
MsgBox(0, "PID", $PID) ; PID so it can be used with ProcessClose() if you want?!
Exit

ehm....much simpler

If WinExists("cmd")=0 then
    run("C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe")
    
EndIf

it-s enough for me..now i need if i close cmd it will reopen...thats it

I take it that means Thanks?! My version will Loop around (as you wanted) until the Window doesn't exist. Yours will check and then Exit straight away. Edited February 13, 2011 by guinness

OK you should have said >>

ShellExecute("cmd.exe") ; <<<<< Test using CMD.
Sleep(500) ; <<<<< Wait for CMD to Start.
While 1
    If Not WinExists("[CLASS:ConsoleWindowClass]") Then $PID = Run("cmd.exe") ; <<<<< Use AU3Info Tool in SciTE > Tools to get the CLASS name of the window.
    Sleep(100) ; Sleep  Wait.
WEnd
Exit

Plus, my previous post had spelling mistakes and I changed the sentence halfway through, but forgot to change mine to my.
