Gonzola 0 Posted October 15, 2012 Hello, I'm having an issue when attempting to bring up the RUN command. Left Windows key and r. I've tried the following Send("{LWIN r}") Send("{LWINr}") Send("{LWIN down}") Send("{r}") Send("{LWIN up}") None seem to work..Am I missing something to combine the LWIN and "r"? Thanks in advance.

ahha 3 Posted February 7, 2013 win+x Okay I must be missing something as well. Have read the help file and tried everything Gonzola tried. I get the win+r to work but for the life of me can't get win+x to work. Manually win+x brings up the advanced context menu in windows 8. Any hints appreciated. Already tried: Send("#x") <-- does nothing Send("{LWIN}x") <-- dumps x into search box Send("{LWINDOWN}x{LWINUP}") <-- does nothing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AutoBit 0 Posted February 25, 2013 Hey,Did you find out how to send Win+x?Send("{LWINDOWN}{x}{LWINUP}") doesn't work...but it does work with other letters : {i} , {c} etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
