Hi and Welcome to the forums!

3 points here:

*Try to avoid Send() as much as possible, too much can go wrong. See if ControlSend() or ControlSetText() works instead.

*The only "waiting" function is those WinWaitActive(), that should be what is stopping the script. Double-check all values etc. Also, if you get rid of send() so you don't need the active window, use WinWait() instead.

*Add full path in Run() (and add working dir!)

P.s is there a thread where i can find already made scripts for automate program installs?

No thread, but you can do a search in Example Scripts forum

Edit: another point

I have noticed another problem.

So when i test from out windows xp, everything runs Perfect.

But when it runs while windows instalnation then:

* i just see that the instalation of Antivir starts, but then there is no more GUI shown and nothing happens anymore

* i have setup that the instalation goes normal (without silent)

* The other aplications when they are installed i can always see the GUI and what is happening.

*So, can it be that the installation has started, but then something is stopping the Antivir to continue, so the next (GUI) window doesn't come up, and thats why the scrpit sotps (Freezes).

You can give this page a try

http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/141102-avira-setup-creator-for-avira-antivir-personal-v9v10/

Otheriwse, try running your script via RunOnceEx and test in VM first

Can also add to beginning of your script, a way to exit your script if hang

HotKeySet("^!x", "MyExit"); ctrl + alt + x to exit if script hang

; your script goes here

Func MyExit()
    Exit 
EndFunc

Personally, I would rather use winwait rather than waitwaitactive because script will hang easily if window are not active especially during unattended setup situation.

Thank you for your replies i will try that.
