thosewhoharp Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Hey All, I am just learning autoit and I'm having trouble with the first screen of an installer. I would like it to click the "Next" button. I figured it wouldn't be dissimilar to the WinZip tutorial, but I was wrong. I've tried using ControlClick and that didn't seem to work either, possibly because I wasn't using the correct information. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Failing script: (the var is just the title of the window) WinActivate($setup) WinWaitActive($setup) Send("!n") (or {ENTER}, etc, etc) AutoIt Info tool output: Class: Button Instance: 2 ClassnameNN: Button2 Name: Advanced Mode: [CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2] ID: 1 Handle: 0x0000000000330438 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abberration Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Try something like this: WinActivate("Text on the titlebar of installer") ControlClick("Text on the titlebar of installer", "", "[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2]") Easy MP3 | Software Installer | Password Manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators JLogan3o13 Posted March 4, 2014 Moderators Share Posted March 4, 2014 What is the software you're trying to install, and does it support silent install via switches? If you can install silently, it is always preferable to trying to automate the GUI. "Profanity is the last vestige of the feeble mind.

thosewhoharp Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 JLo: I'm unsure about this. It's a standard installer for a PC game. Abb: Unfortunately this did not work :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
