I justed tested wih Excel 2010 on Windows 7 64 bit. Works fine.

  • Is there anything special in the Excel workbook like macros etc?
  • Which version of AutoIt do you run?
  • Do you run the 32 or 64 bit version of Excel?

Hmm.. No, nothing special, even an empty workbook still has the same result.

AutoIt is latest: v3.3.14.1

Excel 2013 15.0.4737.1000 32-bit

Windows 7 64-bit

 

I've added some checks and my results are further down below

$aProcesses = ProcessList("Excel.exe")
    ConsoleWrite($aProcesses[0][0] & " Excel instance(s) running." & @CRLF)
    ConsoleWrite('Started Processing ' & $file & @CRLF)
    $oExcel = _Excel_Open(False, False, False, False, True)
    $oWorkbook = _Excel_BookOpen($oExcel, $file, True)
    $aOrgArray = _Excel_RangeRead($oWorkbook)
    $oWorkbook = _Excel_BookClose($oWorkbook, False)
    $oExcelClose = _Excel_Close($oExcel, False, True)
    Sleep(2000)
    ConsoleWrite('Finished Processing ' & $file & @CRLF)
    ConsoleWrite('$oExcelClose=' & $oExcelClose & '   |   @error=' & @error & '   |   @extended=' & @extended & @CRLF)
    $aProcesses = ProcessList("Excel.exe")
    ConsoleWrite($aProcesses[0][0] & " Excel instance(s) still running." & @CRLF)

Console result:

0 Excel instance(s) running.
Started Processing C:\Blank Workbook.xlsx
_Excel_Open() triggered
__Excel_CloseOnQuit triggered. $bNewState=True
_Excel_BookOpen() triggered
_Excel_BookClose() triggered
_Excel_Close() triggered. $bForceClose=True
__Excel_CloseOnQuit triggered. $bNewState=Default
__Excel_CloseOnQuit triggered. $bNewState=False
Finished Processing C:\Blank Workbook.xlsx
$oExcelClose=1   |   @error=0   |   @extended=0
1 Excel instance(s) still running.

 

I have also confirmed that this behaviour is unique to having a 32-bit version of Office on a 64-bit version of Windows. Another system that has both 64-bit OS and 64-bit Office appears to work fine. So it's a mixed software architecture issue. Any ideas on how to resolve?

Would it be possible to test this with AutoIt 3.3.12.0?

Just tested with 3.3.12.0 and no change in behaviour. Excel.exe  still remains in Task Manager.

As a sanity check, add #RequireAdmin to script.

Tried with #RequireAdmin also - no change.

I forgot I had Excel installed. I tried it on version 3.3.12.0 and it closes fine for me whether I close the workbook or not, or whether I set $bForceClose to true or false.

Are you running 32-bit Office on 64-bit Windows though?

You are talking about Excel 2013?

Thanks a lot!
We will then know (hopefully) if the problem is Autoit or Excel related.
