Adrien Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 My goal: Interact with an IE Window on a remote machine.The local machine runs on linux. I have set up the following :Linux -> SSH into windows machine (with a freeSSHd server) -> run psexec -i my_script (to get access to the desktop GUI)This works if I only want to create new windows; they appear on the current user's desktop. But when I try to interact with an already existing IE window, I get this:---------------------------AutoIt Error---------------------------Line 373 (File "C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\Include\IE.au3"):Local $o_ShellWindows = $o_Shell.Windows()Local $o_ShellWindows = $o_Shell.Windows()^ ERRORError: The requested action with this object has failed.---------------------------OK --------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaleHohm Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 (edited) The only COM code being executed are these two lines: Local $o_Shell = ObjCreate("Shell.Application") Local $o_ShellWindows = $o_Shell.Windows(); collection of all ShellWindows (IE and File Explorer) You might want to use _IEErrorHandlerRegister() to see if you get a more detailed error.

It means that what you tried did not produce the results you expected. It begs the questions 1) what did you try?, 2) what did you expect? and 3) what happened instead?
