Dead_Man Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 (edited) I feel like this is really simple and I'm missing something, here what i have so far. if FileExists("Time.ini") = 0 Then $FirstRun = 1 IniWrite("Time.ini","Time","Time",TimerInit()) EndIf while 1 Sleep(1000) if $FirstRun = 1 or TimerDiff(IniRead("Time.ini","Time","Time",0)) > 43210000 Then ; 12 hours = 43210000ms ;~~ Script here IniWrite("Time.ini","Time","Time",TimerInit()) Exit EndIf WEnd Works until i restart my pc and the handle dies Edited May 7, 2015 by Dead_Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 You're using TimerInit wrong, TimerInit only gives you a handle to use with TimerDiff and has nothing to do with time. You should be using something like _NowCalc() to get the date and time and then using something like _DateDiff with a negative value for the hours to find out if 12 hours has passed since you wrote the return value from _NowCalc to the ini file. The help file has an example script that uses both functions to show you how it's used. 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.
