Comparing string to item in array

[NovKit]

I remade my post because my first post was formatted wrong and it was stupid. This should be easier. (why does the website not allow deleting posts?!)

I'm trying to find out why this returns Restart when the input is anything except shutdown. it can be Google or Chrome or Google Chrome or even something random but still returns Restart. If the input is shutdown it runs shutdown normally.

ElseIf $c == "reboot" or "restart" Then

That doesnt look right, should be something like...

ElseIf $c = "reboot" or $c = "restart" Then

So all in all, untested obviously...

Func arun()
    $aFileList = _FileListToArray("C:\Users\333el\Dropbox\IFTTT", Default, Default, True)
    _PathSplit($aFileList[1], $a, $b, $c, $d)
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Test", "Found: " & $c)
    If $c = "shutdown" Then
        FileDelete($aFileList[1])
        MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Test", "Shutdown")
        ;Shutdown(1)
        Exit
    ElseIf $c = "reboot" or $c = "restart" Then
        FileDelete($aFileList[1])
        MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Test", "Restart")
        ;Shutdown(2)
        Exit
    ElseIf $c = "Google" or $c = "Chrome" or $c = "Google Chrome" then
        FileDelete($aFileList[1])
        ShellExecute("chrome.exe", "http://URL1 --new-window --start-fullscreen")       
    Else
        FileDelete($aFileList[1])
        aLoop()
    EndIf
EndFunc

== is for case sensitivity. use single =
