well... this sorta works for daemon tools... had to add the sleep command and I have not figured out how to get rid of teh toolbar. My autoit scripts always look like a 3 year olds coloring book. hehe

Hmm, I think you may have more work ahead of you for Daemons Tools 4.00. I have scripted the 32 bit version. I do not have a 64bit OS so you maybe able to see some ideas from script.

the code i posted workes fine.... until reboot.

edit. the above code works fine for x64 daemon tools. the problem was that i did not reboot after uninstalling the first time. tested on laptop that has never had daemon installed.

It uses HKCU RunOnce on reboot to finish the install, Yes ?

You made a RAR SFX with template.exe and daemon401-64.exe in it and executing the fileinstalled daemon401-64.exe as well ? It should be FileInstall or SFX to accomplish this task. It does go startup crazy in a 32bit VMWare with multiple instances so you may want to check FAQ 14 in the AutoIt helpfile.

thats right... i compiled it, but got an error. I can fix that. I wonder why it didnt go nuts over here??? I will fix the code.

this one is still an sfx, but fixed the au3

Your blind Send()'s are causing the problem. The error window I receive is passing the WinWaitActive() as it has the same title. Then when no window is current it sends to the last item with focus, the script itself. You did not use FAQ 14 code on the last script ?

This seems to work ok, just for startup sequence for me.

$title = @ScriptName & ' Interpreter'
If WinExists($title) Then Exit
AutoitWinSetTitle($title)

 Run("daemon401-64.exe")
for $i = 1 to 5
    WinWaitActive("DAEMON Tools 4.01 (AMD64)")
    If WinExists('DAEMON Tools 4.01 (AMD64)', 'This platform is not supported') Then
        WinClose('DAEMON Tools 4.01 (AMD64)')
        Exit(1)
    EndIf
    Send("{ENTER}")
next
; Do not know about the rest.
Sleep(500)
WinWaitActive("DAEMON Tools 4.01 (AMD64)" , "Completing the DAEMON Tools Setup Wizard")
Send("{SPACE}{ENTER}")
