Close all windows?

[AutoItKing]

I can't seem to figure out how to get all active windows to close in Windows. I've expiramented by getting the handels of windows and then closing them. Help please?

Well, you could do

$list = WinList()
For $i = 1 to $list[0][0]
if BitAnd(WinGetState($list[$i][0]), 2) Then;Is visible
WinClose($list[$i][0])
endif
next

That 'ought to work

Yup. That's what happened to me too. So i just added in

If $sd_windows[$i][0] <> "" AND BitAnd( WinGetState($sd_windows[$i][1]), 2 ) {{{{AND $sd_windows[$i][0] <> "Program Manager"}}}} Then

That's the title of Explorer. If you use WinKill to close it Windows goes wacky and you have to restart your computer. Pissed me off pretty bad!

Handle? Of What?

And to leave more than just one window open..... Haven't added that yet.

[EDIT]

Okay I added it. You can Have up to three windows left open.

_ShutDown(4,"AutoIt Forums - Microsoft Internet Explorer", "Untitled - Notepad", "untitled - Paint")
