apr1985 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Hello. I am testing my scripts on Windows 8 Release Preview (which I am guessing isnt supported by AutoIT yet). Most of it all seems to be working fine except for Run and RunWait commands used to kick off an exe. I can get the exe to start by doing RunWait(@comspec & "/c c:\prog\CLI.exe" , "c:\windows\system32", @SW_SHOW) but not RunWait("c:\prog\CLI.exe") - Which works on all other OS's. Has anyone else come across this problem and found a way to get it working? Cheers Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnmcloud Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 (edited) I can't test it, but what is the problem if this: RunWait(@comspec & "/c c:progCLI.exe" , "C:\Windows\System32\", @SW_SHOW) work? You can use @OSVersion: $var = "c:progCLI.exe" If @OSVersion = "Win_8" Then RunWait(@comspec & "/c " & $var, @WindowsDir & "system32", @SW_SHOW) Else RunWait($var) EndIf I think dev check it out when RTM goes out Edited July 18, 2012 by johnmcloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apr1985 Posted July 18, 2012 Author Share Posted July 18, 2012 Cool, that seems like a sensible compromise, untill Win8 is completly supported Cheers Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripredacus Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Windows 8 changes how it looks for files, especially using the x64 version of a RP bulid. Then again, I use RunWait with @ComSpec for my Win8 apps. Twitter | MSFN | VGCollect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
