Hi everyone,

I'm novice with AutoIT. I am creating a script that copy 2 files in a Firefox folder  (%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\FOLDER), but name of this FOLDER change depending of the computeur. (For exemple: geudzg.defaut ou ytrrzedze.defaut...)

My script looks like that:

FileCopy(@ScriptDir & "\profile\places.sqlite", @AppDataDir& "\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*.defaut",$FC_OVERWRITE)
FileCopy(@ScriptDir & "\profile\prefs.js", @AppDataDir& "\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*.defaut",$FC_OVERWRITE)

I would like to ask to my script to copy the 2 files in this FOLDER regardless of his name. It should be better if i could copy these 2 files un all the subdirectories of "Profiles" whithever folder names.

Thank you very much for you help, and sorry if my English is clumsy.

Something like this maybe?

#include <File.au3>

Global $g_aProfiles = _FileListToArrayRec(@AppDataDir & "\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles", "*.default", 2, 0, 0, 2)
    If @error Then MsgBox(4096, "Error", "No Profile Directories found")
For $i = 1 To $g_aProfiles[0]
    FileCopy(@ScriptDir & "\profile\places.sqllite", $g_aProfiles[$i], 1)
    FileCopy(@ScriptDir & "\profile\prefs.js", $g_aProfiles[$i], 1)
Next
