Problems with Windows 7

[jinchausti]

Hi all,

I'm using AutoIt to automatically deploy some software on 1600 PC's. It works great on XP, but I have troubles with W7. Prior to install, I have to unzip the software on a folder, c:\tmp, so I start the instalator, and the first thing I get is a WinZip window:

WinWaitActive($txt2 ,"")

Second, I have to change the folder to unzip in, from default value to c:\tmp

ControlSetText("WinZip Self-Extractor - NSL_70SP1_20100416a.exe", "", "[CLASS:Edit; INSTANCE:1]", "c:\tmp")

This is what it's driving me mad. It works great on XP, but misserably failed on W7. Can someone give a little light about what's going on?

Thx in advance

In my previous life I used the Winzip command line add-on. Makes life a lot easier.

Or use the winzip command line parameters.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I can't use it. I must run NSL_70SP1_20100416a.exe instead...

Then use "NSL_70SP1_20100416a.exe /auto c:\temp" to automatically extract the files into c:\temp

Plese check this kb article.
