Beginner Information

[Stillgate]

Hello, I'm new to AutoIT. I need some help to get started. Here is the task I want to do. 

I have a zip folder on my server. 

I need to download a zip folder (from my server) to C:\Temp

Extract the zip folder to the C:\Temp folder

Run a .bat file as an administrator. 

 

Can you please help me get started?

 

I'm running Windows 7

SciTE-Lite

How do you intend to download the file?

Do you have a standard procedure?

You can use FileCopy() to copy the file from the server to the destination path.

There are a bunch of UDF ( User Defined Functions ) about Zip management.

You can find more about here.

You can try to use RunAs()

As a new user of this amazing programming language, I feel to suggest you that the Help file is your best friend...

So, if you are searching something, I'd always start from there
