Different stripped files Generated

[ohpsn]

The attached stripped files from windows 10 and 11 generated different exe file, one is good and the other is not working. I am puzzled.

Please note that:

1. I take the liberty to edit one file to make aCall into aResult to reduce the number of differences while comparing,

2. The script is calling window api user32.dll for setcursorpos because I am using two monitors having a over 100% scale .

Your under 300 line script would be better than comparing 684 to 639.
Better yet the environments. I mean, readin 'em would not give a clue but the setup would.

%SCITE_USERHOME% get's set when you install. Make sure both PCs have the same setup ( versions, updates, whatnot )

In case you like to get support on au3stripper you need to suplly the original source, the generated intermediate and output file plus the generated au3stripper.log!
Also define the error you have and/or what is going wrong.

On the process of distilling the essentials, I found out that my LG computer could not display a simple msgbox message with test.exe generated on LG computer but the msgbox works fine on LG computer when I run testgood.exe generated in a different machine. 

BTW, when I installed autoit originally, it did not create $SCITE_USERHOME.

 

test.au3 test_stripped.au3 test.exe testgood.exe

To troubleshoot that, computer model, hardware, OS version, software and setting are much more important than AutoIt coding.

This is my computer setup:

   Device specifications

        Device name     LG
        Processor       13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-136OP 2.20 GHz
        Installed RAM   32.0 GB (31.7 GB usable)
        Device ID       withheld
        Product ID      00330-81623—32065—AA360
        System type     64-bit operating system, x64—based processor
        Pen and touch   No pen or touch input is available for this display

    Windows specifications

        Edition         Windows 11 Pro
        Version         23H2
        Installed on    11/6/2023
        OS build        226312792
        Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 10002268110000
 

I am attaching several files to show where I downloaded the program and the default options to install AutoIt.

The environment variable $SCITE_USERHOME is never set and there is only one directory "api" under Scite while other directories are missing.

...too many pics
I install away from default. I use "C:\Utilities\AutoIt3" and update the install right after installing SciTE.
I run without antivirus ( but that's just me ).
I also use O&O shutup.

Maybe you can install your version of Windows in a virtual machine ( you have Hyper-V in the pro version ), and test from there.

My point is that there is no reason in my experience for your happenings. Given that your hardware is ok ( disk and memory ), then there has to be a software something. Hence the advice to try stuff out in a VM.

I am not an active member to access the article of "update the install."  Is there a way you could post this for me?

I have not used Hyper-V for the last 12 years, I will brush up the knowledge and give it a go later. Thanks.

it just replaces the default files with the beta files.

After limping along for four months, I did a reset on one of my pcs Yesterday. To my surprise, it did not produce the right executable.

My script files are on the Google Drive. Once I switched the Google Drive mode from "stream" to "mirroring", the produced executables are good.

I will mark this article as closed in a couple of days to see any explanation on this behavior. Thanks.
