Crazyace Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 When I try simple code like #include <IE.au3> $oIE = _IECreate("http://sourceforge.net", 0, 0) It fails to hide. Any ideas?

AdmiralAlkex Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 Looks fine to me on IE9, Win7, Au3 3.3.8.1 x64/x86.

BrewManNH Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 That's a different problem than the original problem. I ran your code on my system, Win 7 x64 and IE 8 (no access to IE9 here) and it works without a problem, the IE window is hidden. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

The system I'm using is Windows 7 x86 and I'm going to try uninstalling IE9 and try IE8. I tried the same code on my other desktop that has IE9 and WIndows 7 x64 and it did the same thing.Any ideas about the error in the console?

Crazyace Posted May 1, 2012 Author Posted May 1, 2012 I tested with IE8 now and I still have the same issue "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.

BrewManNH Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 Which issue? It isn't hidden or the Wend error message?

Crazyace Posted May 1, 2012 Author Posted May 1, 2012 The Wend seems to be the issue causing it not to hide for me. The IE.au3 file has not been touched by me.

AdmiralAlkex Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 Have you tried the AutoIt beta to see if the same thing happens? .Some of my scripts: ShiftER, Codec-Control, Resolution switcher for HTC ShiftSome of my UDFs: SDL UDF, SetDefaultDllDirectories, Converting GDI+ Bitmap/Image to SDL Surface
Crazyace Posted May 1, 2012 Author Posted May 1, 2012 I haven't tried Beta, but I did reinstall AutoIT on my desktop system and it works fine with IE9. I'm going to see if reinstalling on my laptop will resolve the issue for me.

Crazyace Posted May 1, 2012 Author Posted May 1, 2012 I just reinstalled AutoIT and installed the full version of SciTE.

BrewManNH Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 I think it's related to a Trak issue that's been reported previously, not sure if there's a work-around yet.

Crazyace Posted May 1, 2012 Author Posted May 1, 2012 I just tried AutoIT beta and 1/2 of it works. When I launch the code it starts 3 iexplore.exe processes and shows the webpage. I changed the code to: #include <IE.au3> $oIE = _IECreate("www.google.com", 0, 0) Sleep(5000) _IEQuit($oIE) I noticed that the _IEQuit never kills the process. If I close the process via task manager when I open IE I get - "Your last browsing session closed unexpectedly" "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.

Crazyace Posted May 7, 2012 Author Posted May 7, 2012 I found out that it's that damn UAC that's causing an issue here.
