Constant check through out a script if a certain window is active

[Sulfuri]

As the title say, i want a script that runs a certain task in chrome but if chrome where to shut down before the script finished i want it to relaunch chrome and start from the beginning. so i tried something like this

i have a "winexists" function that check if the window exist and then

while 1
If $winexist = 0 Then
LaunchChrome()
EndIf
WEnd

But what happens is that if i were to shut down chrome it keeps going through the script and once it's finished it starts chrome again.

I want it to stop where it's at and relaunch chrome(if chrome where to be shut down that is) and start over again. anyone think they can help?

Can you post the whole script? Function WinExists and how you call it?

WinActivate("Google - Google Chrome")

LaunchChrome()

$winexist is only set at the start of the script. You'll have to do the window check in the While loop.

looks like this now, allthough problem still persist

while 1
$winexist = WinExists("Google - Google Chrome")
If $winexist = 0 Then
LaunchChrome()
EndIf
WEnd
