If i use winactivate will mess up everything

Of course, but not WinGetProcess, WinGetHandle, WinGetText, etc.  Help file is your best friend...

Now that you have the basic tools, it is time for you to write some code. Enjoy !

ConsoleWrite(@AutoItPID & @CRLF)   ; Process identifier (PID) of the current script.

 

I think he wants to know which process launched the autoit script...

ps. another option is to pass the launcher PID as a command line parameter to the autoit script.

To find the parent process PID you can use this:

Exactly, i'm trying know which process launched the autoit script, and Nine, i have searched and read in the help file, this is how i did my script below.

This is my actual script, he detects the active window, get her process name, and run another script inside a determined sandboxie, im trying identify what process launched the script without needs active her window.

Local $Actwin = WinGetHandle("[ACTIVE]")
    Local $PidActwin = WinGetProcess($Actwin)
    Local $NamePidActwin = _Findpidname($PidActwin)


    If $NamePidActwin = "1.exe" Then
    Local $client= "/box:1   %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Scripts\job.exe"
    RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /c "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" ' & $client, "", @SW_HIDE)
    EndIf

    If $NamePidActwin = "2.exe" Then
    Local $client= "/box:2   %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Scripts\job.exe"
    RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /c "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" ' & $client, "", @SW_HIDE)
    EndIf

    If $NamePidActwin = "3.exe" Then
    Local $client= "/box:3   %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Scripts\job.exe"
    RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /c "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" ' & $client, "", @SW_HIDE)
    EndIf

    If $NamePidActwin = "4.exe" Then
    Local $client= "/box:4   %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Scripts\job.exe"
    RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /c "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" ' & $client, "", @SW_HIDE)
    EndIf

    If $NamePidActwin = "5.exe" Then

    RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /c "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" ' & $client, "", @SW_HIDE)
    EndIf

    If $NamePidActwin = "7.exe" Then
    Local $client= "/box:7   %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Scripts\job.exe"
    RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /c "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" ' & $client, "", @SW_HIDE)
    EndIf

    If $NamePidActwin = "8.exe" Then
    Local $client= "/box:8   %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Scripts\job.exe"
    RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /c "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" ' & $client, "", @SW_HIDE)

    RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /c "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" ' & $client, "", @SW_HIDE)
    EndIf

    If $NamePidActwin = "11.exe" Then
    Local $client= "/box:11   %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Scripts\job.exe"
    RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /c "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" ' & $client, "", @SW_HIDE)

    RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /c "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" ' & $client, "", @SW_HIDE)
    EndIf

    If $NamePidActwin = "16.exe" Then

    RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /c "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" ' & $client, "", @SW_HIDE)
    EndIf



    ;MsgBox(0, '', $NamePidActwin)


   Func _Findpidname($Pid)
       Local $Processlist = ProcessList()
       For $i = 1 To $Processlist[0][0]
           If $Processlist[$i][1] = $Pid Then Return $Processlist[$i][0]
       Next
   EndFunc   ;==>_Findpidname

@jchd I launched your script it pop up a window with all process, im a bit lost what next step?

you could simplify your code by doing this (untested) but you get the idea :

Local $box = Number(StringRegExp($NamePidActwin,"(\d+).",$STR_REGEXPARRAYMATCH)[0])
Local $client= "/box:" & $box & " %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Scripts\job.exe"
RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /c "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" ' & $client, "", @SW_HIDE)

Have a look at _WinAPI_GetParentProcess and _ProcessGetName.  The script will need to be compiled for it to work correctly.  

#include <Process.au3>
#include <WinAPIProc.au3>

Global $iScriptParentPID = _WinAPI_GetParentProcess(@AutoItPID)
Global $sParentProcessName = _ProcessGetName($iScriptParentPID)
MsgBox(0, "Process Name", $sParentProcessName) ;For testing.
