AlisPT Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Hi! First post on AutoIT Forum! I am facing a big problem. I have tried commands like WinMove, ControlClick, MouseClick and many others with success, interacting with Calculator window. Now I am trying to click o a button of HWiNFO32 program but i just can't. No ControlClick, no WinMove no MouseClick, not even Send command!!! What can I do? Is there a workaround? You can try it for yourself, try getting HWiNFO32 portable and then click on something or move the window. I can't. Where's the problem? dowd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javiwhite Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Hey AlisPT, And welcome to the forums It sounds like your reference to the HWiNFO32 program is incorrect in your code, Is there any chance you could post the code you've tried so far? Cheers Javi give a man an application, and he'll be frustrated for the day, Teach him how to program applications and he'll be frustrated for a lifetime.

AlisPT Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 Hi! It is a real problem, I really would like to use HWiNFO32. Ok, here an example code that didn't work. Example() Func Example() WinMove("HWiNFO32 v4.60-2460 Sensor Status", "", 0, 0) EndFunc If I try it with calculator, it works! Example() Func Example() WinMove("Calculadora", "", 0, 0) EndFunc Here is the Window Info. http://prntscr.com/6l5lp2 I have tried with several programs like calculator, notepad and others and they work. HWiNFO32 just doesn't work... If you could try it yourself to see if it's a program problem. It's probably a protection to automation... (Running windows 7 x64 here). Nothing works. can't move window, can't click buttons... : Need some help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution jdelaney Posted March 25, 2015 Solution Share Posted March 25, 2015 Assuming the window exits when you perform the move, and you can't interact with it, include this in your script: #RequireAdmin AlisPT, dowd and JohnOne 3 IEbyXPATH-Grab IE DOM objects by XPATH IEscriptRecord-Makings of an IE script recorder ExcelFromXML-Create Excel docs without excel installed GetAllWindowControls-Output all control data on a given window.

AlisPT Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 Nope, still nothing. Tried with HWiNFO32 and HWiNFO32 v4.60-2460 Sensor Status as Title. It's probably something related to HWiNFO32. Coud you check that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlisPT Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 That's the thingy! #RequireAdmin did the trick! Now, is there a way I can bypass uac prompt when the user is already an admin? And thanks, the main problem is solved! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdelaney Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) PSExec, PAExec, initiate via scheduled task with max rights, turn off UAC. The user doesn't matter (as long as they may use admin rights), it's the level of permissions @ execution that does.

AlisPT Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) Ok, launching the script using a shortcut did the trick: C:WindowsSystem32schtasks.exe /run /tn "UAC passNovo AutoIt v3 Script" You guys are amazing!
