Docfxit 7 Posted July 4, 2014 I'd like to know why AutoIt is waiting on this first line of code when the Window Info shows the correct window is open? WinWait("classname=#32770", "Register") If Not WinActive("classname=#32770", "Register") Then WinActivate("classname=#32770", "Register") WinWaitActive("classname=#32770", "Register") Thank you, Docfxit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrewManNH 1,304 Posted July 5, 2014 Your title information is written wrong, and even written correctly, might not get the correct window. That Class is used extensively these days, so you might need more information to make sure you're looking at the right window. WinWaitActive("[CLASS:Notepad]", "") Note, there's no equal sign, and no pound/hash in there. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

Docfxit 7 Posted July 5, 2014 Thank you very much for correcting me. I have now tried: WinWait("[CLASS:32770]", "Register") WinWait("[CLASS:32770]", "") WinWait("[CLASS:Button]", "Register") None of them seem to work. Do you have any idea what else I could try? Thank you, Docfxit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muzaiyan 9 Posted July 5, 2014 (edited) Use a Window handle for performing these functions correctly. like this code: $GUI = GUICreate("GUI") GUISetState(@SW_SHOWMINIMIZED) MsgBox(64,"","WinWaitActive() function will wait for the window to be restored." & @CRLF & "(Restore it from taskbar)") WinWaitActive($GUI) MsgBox(64,"","Window is active now." & @CRLF & "(Now executing next statements)","",$GUI) GUIDelete($GUI) Edited July 5, 2014 by Muzaiyan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
