Not going to happen my friend...  give it a try and post questions with code in case things don;t work as expected. ;)

.. or else you can hire me for $200 an hour to do it for you....  paying upfront.

I'm new.
I searched the forum
I tried that.

#include <Constants.au3>
#include <WinApi.au3>

Local $hWnd = WinGetHandle("[ACTIVE]", "")

$iPID = Run("C:\Program Files\3.exe")
Sleep(200)
WinActivate($hWnd)
Sleep(500)

$hWnd = WinGetHandle("[CLASS:3]")
_WinAPI_SetWindowPos($hWnd, $HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, BitOR( $SWP_NOACTIVATE, $SWP_NOMOVE, $SWP_NOSIZE))
_WinAPI_SetWindowPos($hWnd, $HWND_NOTOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, BitOR( $SWP_NOACTIVATE, $SWP_NOMOVE, $SWP_NOSIZE))

Sleep(10000000)
ProcessClose($iPID)

Of course he didn't. 😜
I built an example
I made a movie.

 

Want to front
same as
_GDIPlus_GlowingText.au3

Thank you

Yea I know but compared to what we get around these forums for cleaning up shit and getting all kinds of death wishes, it is pretty OK-ish. ;)

Listen, when you want any help you will have to post something that demonstrates your issue. Your current posted code doesn't mean anything to me nor does it show me what your issue could be. 
Other than that, we like you to be way more patient and wait at least  24 hours before  bumping your thread.

Since I am not knowledgeable I am new
I would love for you to guide me on how to advance a screen to progress

 

Did you also read that opening sentence?:

up

#include <Constants.au3>
#include <WinApi.au3>

Local $hWnd = WinGetHandle("[ACTIVE]", "")

$iPID = Run("C:\Program Files\3.exe")
Sleep(200)
WinActivate($hWnd)
Sleep(500)

$hWnd = WinGetHandle("[CLASS:3]")
_WinAPI_SetWindowPos($hWnd, $HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, BitOR( $SWP_NOACTIVATE, $SWP_NOMOVE, $SWP_NOSIZE))
_WinAPI_SetWindowPos($hWnd, $HWND_NOTOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, BitOR( $SWP_NOACTIVATE, $SWP_NOMOVE, $SWP_NOSIZE))

Sleep(10000000)
ProcessClose($iPID)

And it's not good

obviously

Because I'm new 😂

I feel we have gone full circle and can only point you back to the initial answer to this:

So: put in comments in that script what you expect those lines to do and what isn't working, because we can't replicate your issue when we do not have your "3.exe" and have no clue what it does. use Au3info as well to get the details of your shown window for "3.exe" and show them here.

Hey Phak,

Do you want "Glow" to be on top always, and other splash like photoshop is shadowing it? Hard to understand.

You seem to have set up it as TOPMOST but that doesnt mean it will be as everyone would use this to get things topmost :)

Maybe you can constantly update it's state. Not sure if it would hinder other windows' operations though. Check this out:

It could be pricey; just for running the program once we’re looking at:

Sleep(10000000) / 1000 / 3600 * $200 = $555.55

(Talk about a number that is just itching to round up :)

Code hard, but don’t hard code...

Be careful what you wish for...

#include <WinAPISysWin.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

$g_hWnd=WinGetHandle("[TITLE:Untitled - Notepad]")

AlwaysOnTop($g_hWnd)

Func AlwaysOnTop($hWnd)
   While True
      _WinAPI_SetWindowPos($hWnd, $HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, BitOR($SWP_NOACTIVATE, $SWP_NOSIZE, $SWP_NOMOVE))
      WinWaitNotActive(WinGetHandle("[ACTIVE]"))
   WEnd
EndFunc

@Jos, just realized, I may have inadvertently “burfed” :)
