Nine Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I suppose (shinning my crystal ball here) that the script blocks at the "open with" window ?

autoscripterwin Posted May 8, 2019 Author Share Posted May 8, 2019 I think I have to describe the problem nearer. I'm trying to install a programm in verysilent mode. The installation runs well but the window opens and then my opsi installation does not finish. The problem is then that my client isn't going on booting. He waits until user says how to open the welcome page. But the sense is to do the installation without any interactions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nine Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Alright, but my question still remains. Do the script blocks at that windows or does it continue like nothing happened ? The reason I ask is because if it blocks, you will need to create a child process to check for that window and have it closed. If it doesn't block, you could check regularly in you main script and then close it. I suppose again that you know exactly when this popup window shows up, right ? “They did not know it was impossible, so they did it” ― Mark Twain Spoiler Block all input without UAC Save/Retrieve Images to/from Text Monitor Management (VCP commands) Tool to search in text (au3) files Date Range Picker Virtual Desktop Manager Sudoku Game 2020 Overlapped Named Pipe IPC HotString 2.0 - Hot keys with string x64 Bitwise Operations Multi-keyboards HotKeySet Recursive Array Display Fast and simple WCD IPC Multiple Folders Selector Printer Manager GIF Animation (cached) Screen Scraping Multi-Threading Made Easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nine Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I see. Show us your code, so we better understand your issue. I believe there should be an easy way to solve this... “They did not know it was impossible, so they did it” ― Mark Twain Spoiler Block all input without UAC Save/Retrieve Images to/from Text Monitor Management (VCP commands) Tool to search in text (au3) files Date Range Picker Virtual Desktop Manager Sudoku Game 2020 Overlapped Named Pipe IPC HotString 2.0 - Hot keys with string x64 Bitwise Operations Multi-keyboards HotKeySet Recursive Array Display Fast and simple WCD IPC Multiple Folders Selector Printer Manager GIF Animation (cached) Screen Scraping Multi-Threading Made Easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 You should check to see if Firefox is installed before trying to open it. 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.

autoscripterwin Posted May 8, 2019 Author Share Posted May 8, 2019 thanks BrewManNH but the problem is that the exe file is just opening it. I cant check if standard programs are installed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nine Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 The autoit script can do all of it. Start your exe, check for popup window, close it if it shows, check for successful install, reboot if necessary, etc. “They did not know it was impossible, so they did it” ― Mark Twain Spoiler Block all input without UAC Save/Retrieve Images to/from Text Monitor Management (VCP commands) Tool to search in text (au3) files Date Range Picker Virtual Desktop Manager Sudoku Game 2020 Overlapped Named Pipe IPC HotString 2.0 - Hot keys with string x64 Bitwise Operations Multi-keyboards HotKeySet Recursive Array Display Fast and simple WCD IPC Multiple Folders Selector Printer Manager GIF Animation (cached) Screen Scraping Multi-Threading Made Easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
