I am looking for advice on next trouble shooting steps for my problem. I have researched this over the last three days and still not solved it. The main reason "run Scite works, exe doesnt" occurs seems to be duplicate names in executable files but I made sure I do not have that problem.
I have a "trivial" script that watches for a login window to pop up, inserts PW and enter/closes. It worked for a year then I experimented with #RequireAdmin on another problem and ran/compiled this one with RequireAdmin to check out what happens as a learning excercise. Now the compiled version MUST be run with admin rights, and I get the UAC approval window which I must avoid in my application, but the SciTe editor version runs from the tools menu (F5) just fine, no UAC. The correlation between using RequireAdmin for a while and the run problem is probably just a coincidence, but I am suspicious.
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> ;#RequireAdmin ;trying with and without #requireadmin Opt("SendCapslockMode", 0) ;make sure caps are off Send("{CapsLock off}") Local $myTitle = "User Login Dialog" Local $myPW = "password" & "{ENTER} ; Wait max 10 seconds for the Sign In window to appear. If Not (WinWait($myTitle, "", 10)) Then MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL + $MB_ICONERROR, "Error", "LogIn window did not appear or is timed out") EndIf If WinActivate($myTitle) Then ControlSend($myTitle, "", "", $myPW ) ;alternate, also works in editor ;Send($myPW & "{ENTER}") ;MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL + $MB_ICONERROR, "INFO", "SENT $myPW enter") Else MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL + $MB_ICONERROR, "Error", "Sign In Window did not activate") EndIf Sleep(2000) If (WinExists($myTitle)) Then MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL + $MB_ICONERROR, "Error", "LOGIN FAILED") EndIf More info that may be relevant, at least as background info: The LogIn window is from a custom addin to Excel, does not have control ID access to the user/pw entry locations, just the enter/cancel buttons are found by AU3Info. Thus I had to resort to Send, or ControlSend with just the default selection on popup of where the entries go. Fortunately the UserID area remains populated between uses and the PW entry "window" is automatically selected at window popup so I just enter PW text and {enter}.
I can run the compiled file as administrator, OK the UAC window "do you want to allow...", and it runs. (right click the file in file explorer, select "Run as Administrator".
Trying to accept this issue I tried ways to "bypass" the UAC window. I followed instructions on CNET to run the exe file as administrator automatically but the UAC window still comes up: Always run a program in administrator mode in Windows 10 - CNET
I tried to create a shortcut to the exe file through the scheduler following these instructions (other links give the same set of instructions), did not seem to run at all, could not track down any errors I might have made. Open any program as administrator without UAC prompt (winaero.com)
Is there any system settings permanently changed by RequireAdmin? What should I look at to have the exe file run without the UAC window?
Regards and stay healthy!

Hi,
i'v just uploaded my latest project: Simple Snippet Manager to the Downloads. area :
The intended usage is to select a Snippet, and to copy it's contents into your favorite Editor.
The Copy/Paste process happens over the (windows)Clipboard.
The previous clipboard content is not restored.
There is a time limit of 60 seconds, in which the pasting of the text is allowed (starting when the App window gets inactive).
The Hotkey is reenabled, when the main Window is activated.
This is a File/Folder based manager.
The App is configured to hold 4000 files and 400 folders with searching depth of 5 sub-folders.
The root folder is freely selectable, but it should be a Folder with writing permission.
Please install the App in a folder with Writing permission, too.
This App only uses an .ini file to save it's configuration, which has to be in the same folder as the App.
First configuration:
1. Open the config Window.
2. Enter the Language name, create or seek a root folder, enter an extension.
3. Click on Set button.
4. Click on the Exit button.
The Language configuration is done, adding files or folders are needed:
1. Select the language from the dropbox list, and click on Get Lang button.
2a. Right Click on the root folder, chose New folder to add categories.
2b. or chose New/Edit file to open the builtin text editor
3. Paste or Write a snippet-code, enter a filename and save it.
(Repeat the 3. as needed)
Usage:
Select a language, then click on Get Lang button.
Choose a file with the left mouse button.
Check if the code was loaded in the Textarea at the bottom.
Switch to your Sourcecode editor, and press the Hotkey (default= Ctrl/Strg b) to copy and paste the text.
There is a time limit of 60 seconds, after the main window gets inactive, in which the copy&pasting is allowed.
Changelog:
V1.02 (24.06.2020)
Addition: Undocumented ini setting: StartLoadLastUsedLanguage
Setting this to 1 (default value) will now reload the Last used language at start.
Last used language counts for the Language, selected with [Get Lang] button. The [Config] button will delete the last used language.
LastUsedLanguageNr, LastUsedLanguageName ini settings are used internaly for the above function.
Added version string to the main Window title.
V1.01 (23.06.2020)
Bugfix : Starting the App without the ini file now sets the correct starting Hotkey (Ctrl b)
Addition: Clipboard is saved, before pasting, and restored after pasting. (May work with text data only. p.s. untested!)

Let me get it straight...
I've been having such a great experience with AutoIt, it helped me a lot at my work. And now, I gotta make some configurations in the BIOS of many computers at my work. So, I'd like to know, is it possible to use AutoIt (or some programming language) to write an algorithm that when compiled and transefered to a pen drive, it's "plug and run"?

So, I have this odd issue happening with UIAWrappers. When I run simplespy.au3 through SciTE, it finds the object I'm trying to work with, no problem. But, when I compile simplespy.exe, it can't find it. Another script that utilizes UIAWrappers is experiencing the same phenomenon. EDIT: Compiling as 32-bit or 64-bit does not affect this behavior.
The trouble starts at the very first object I try to get via _UIA_getObjectByFindAll, so I included the $properties2Match array and the object properties that were returned by _UIA_getPropertyValue for that first object both when running from SciTE and when compiled.
It always finds the matches for the title and control type properties. But when compiled, it fails to find the Automation ID property. Any ideas as to why this would be happening? Hoping junkew will see this and have an idea.
These are the $properties2Match
30005|Screen/PVN - ###.###.##.## - CDK Drive|0|False
30003|50032|0|False
30011|Portal|0|False
Object properties when running from SciTE:
<propertymatching>
j:1 propID:[30005] expValue:[Screen/PVN - ###.###.##.## - CDK Drive]actualValue:[Screen/PVN - ###.###.##.## - CDK Drive]1
j:2 propID:[30003] expValue:[50032]actualValue:[50032]1
j:3 propID:[30011] expValue:[Portal]actualValue:[Portal]1
</propertymatching>
Object properties when script is compiled:
<propertymatching>
j:1 propID:[30005] expValue:[Screen/PVN - ###.###.##.## - CDK Drive]actualValue:[Screen/PVN - ###.###.##.## - CDK Drive]1
j:2 propID:[30003] expValue:[50032]actualValue:[50032]1
j:3 propID:[30011] expValue:[Portal]actualValue:[]0
</propertymatching>
