Choosing item on file explorer


 Share

Recommended Posts

Hey all,

I've been trying to click on the "Netork" tab in the systreeview on file explorer/my computer.

I need my script to work on different computers and operations system, so I had some ideas:

  1.  Some API that allows me to click an item on this list by it's text.
  2.  Using TAB and DOWN to get there. But, for this option I need a way to know the text of the currently 'hovered' item, so I'll know when to stop sending TABs/DOWNs.
  3. Any other API that allows me to go over all the items in the systreeview.

Any idea on how to do that?

Code examples will be great.

Thanks!

@pelegw welcome to the forum. Perhaps you could explain what exactly you're trying to accomplish. Most often, automating the GUI, especially in Explorer, is not necessary to accomplish what you're after.

@JLogan3o13 asked you to explain what you are trying to accomplish, because there is a lot of chances that the automation of the explorer os not necessary. So explain us what you want to do, someone will probably have a solution.
