curl.exe vs bash.exe

[Homeseer666]

Why does this work

#RequireAdmin

ShellExecute("C:\windows\system32\curl.exe","C:\windows\system32",@SW_MAXIMIZE)

but not this?

#RequireAdmin

ShellExecute("C:\windows\system32\bash.exe","C:\windows\system32",@SW_MAXIMIZE)

I get this error message

Windows cannot find 'C:\windows\system32\bash.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly....etc.

Bash.exe is present and it does work from the cmd line.

 

I haven't added the rest of the bash.exe args/parameters to make this simpler but obviously returns the same error message

Try running it with the x64 autoit version

That was it;

merci oh grand Maître!

I did it by compiling x64 or running script x64

but is there a way to run it in x64 directly from SciTE while editing?

I usually just "Go" it but seems like it runs x86 by default

I am on v3.3.14.5  and SciTE 32-bit Version 4.2.0

Just install the full version of SciTE4Autoit3 and use the #autoit3wrapper_usex64 directive in the script. This will then run the proper version of AutoIt3.

Perfect, works a charm, thank you!
