cbourdeau Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 I'm trying to write a script with winwait in it, but for some reason, winwait doesn't wait for the specified window to show up. It just goes trough the script launching all the commands one after the other. On one of my pc's the script works great, but on the other one I have the problem. I'm new with AutoIT and I think that it's a great tool, but I really need some help with that. Thanks

cbourdeau Posted November 7, 2005 Author Posted November 7, 2005 You are using the same title...WinWait("Uninstal")Pick something that exclusively defines the next window...example: WinWait("Uninstal","Select then folder")Lar.Both window have the exact same title...
