Pressing a button not working...

[Chimaera]

Ive been trying to make autoit press a button when a particular box apperas from a program

$path_mal = @ProgramFilesDir & "Malwarebytes' Anti-Malwarembam.exe"
SplashTextOn("Checking ...", "Malwarebytes Updating", 200, 50, -1, -1, 18)
ShellExecuteWait( $path_mal, " /update") ; updates

;~ WinClose("[CLASS: #32770]", "")

;~ If WinExists("[CLASS:Button]") Then
;~ Send("{ENTER}")
;~ EndIf

;~ If WinExists("Malwarebytes Anti-Malware") Then
;~ Send("{ENTER}")
;~ EndIf

;~ WinWaitActive("[CLASS:Button; ID:2]","OK")
;~ Sleep(2000)
;~ Send("{ENTER}")
SplashOff()

Ive left some of my tries so you can see what ive been doing, but this particular button resist what im doing.

It is active and the button is highlighted pressing enter on the keyboard works, just not thru the autoit

Suggestions?

Doesn't ShellExecuteWait() make your script wait till the program is finished?

Chimaera,

Yes, your link is better. Did you try the switch "/update -silent" ?

They don't all work because some of them are for the paid version.

We generally encounter home users so only certain switches will do the job that we need

and -silent is a paid one
