BrewManNH Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Can you translate that to English? 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.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post.

Moderators JLogan3o13 Posted October 3, 2017 Moderators Share Posted October 3, 2017 @Bamse it appears (after having to translate via Google) the script cannot find the Settings.txt file. Is the file located in that directory? In the future, please post code (pictures are for Facebook) and, as this is an English forum, use Google Translate if necessary to post error messages in English.

Nunos Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 You could try doing an IF FileExists line first to make sure that the file is there before doing the ShelExecute . https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions/FileExists.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators JLogan3o13 Posted October 3, 2017 Moderators Share Posted October 3, 2017 Which leads back to my original question, does that file exist in the directory you're specifying?

BenfnJovi Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Its gonna be something simple. You are missing a character in the file name, or something along those lines. Go to an explorer window and navigate to the file. Click in the file path field and select the entire contents. Press Ctrl+C to copy the selection. Go back to your script and past that into your script. Make sure the filename itself is exact. I've had situations similar to this, where I missed a letter and didn't notice it.

BenfnJovi Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 hmmm... I don't see any discrepancy in your script then. have you tried FileOpen()? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badcoder123 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 (edited) Run("C:\Users\William\Desktop\Settings.txt","C:\Users\William\Desktop") I'm assuming you're AutoIt is downloaded to a different drive rather than the C:\ so this should work Edited October 3, 2017 by badcoder123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juvigy Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 It is because Autoit doesnt have access to that directory - Desktop of the user Wiliam. So are you starting autoit/scite/the exe file as another user? You can easily test this by changing the file location to c:\ directly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
