ControlClick

[cheeroke]

I dont know how to make this working or I am missing something - maybe in `#include` ?
at this point I have:

#RequireAdmin
    #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
    #include <FileConstants.au3>

    ;vcdredist
    Run($sDrivers & "\vcredist_x86.exe")
    WinWaitActive("vcredist_x86")
    ;ControlClick("Microsoft Visual C++ 2010  x86 Redistributable Maintenance", "","[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:3]")
    ControlClick("Microsoft Visual C++ 2010  x86 Redistributable Maintenance", "","[ID:105]")

I've checked with AutoIt v3 WIndow Control and arguments inside ControlClick are correct

none of last two lines make AutoIt select desired option.
Any help very much appreciated.

I think the problem is the WinWaitActive, try

#RequireAdmin
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <FileConstants.au3>

;vcdredist
Run($sDrivers & "\vcredist_x86.exe")
WinWaitActive("Microsoft Visual C++ 2010  x86 Redistributable Maintenance")
ConsoleWrite('Found'&@CRLF)
;ControlClick("Microsoft Visual C++ 2010  x86 Redistributable Maintenance", "","[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:3]")
ControlClick("Microsoft Visual C++ 2010  x86 Redistributable Maintenance", "","[ID:105]")

...still doesn't work

[AutoBert]

what's the output in console

[cheeroke]

...ups, how to run console? is it cmd? or AutoIt console - if so - how to run it?

[AutoBert]

I mean the Scite4AutoIt Console. But just replacing

ConsoleWrite('Found'&@CRLF)

with

MsgBox(0,'Window','is activated')

will give you same feedback.

I've replaced with above but no message pop-ups.

[AutoBert]

Than the WinWaitActive didn't find the window and is still waiting. Correct the Windowstitle in this line.

You could use command line switches to silently install the program. Then there would be no need to automate the GUI.

Very helpfull, thanks.

I got another question, how to run batch file but may i ask here or shall i create new topic?

[water]

To run a batch file use Run, RunWait or ShellExecute.

[cheeroke]

if i want to run it like when you right click on file and run as administrator?

[cheeroke]

.... RunAS seems to have too many options which i dont need

 

RunAs ( "username", "domain", "password", logon_flag, "program" [, "workingdir" [, show_flag [, opt_flag]]] )

 

[water]

Add "#RequireAdmin" to your script and then use "Run" to run the batch file.

did that already but it doesn't work

[cheeroke]

There are some hidden files which i think are being trigged by script - would it be the case it doesn't work?

(sorry i dont know how to edit my own post)

[water]

What do you mean by hidden files? Run exactly starts the file you specify.

[SadBunny]

Maybe the batch file requires files in the directory of that batch file. Try adding the directory as the second parameter to the Run command as follows:

Run("c:\tmp\myDirectory\xyz.bat", "c:\tmp\myDirectory")
