Break In Script Befor Filedelete

[tobi]

Hi...

i want to make auto-installation.

after the installation is complete i want to remove the installation file from the local harddisk but

the file is left there every time.

maybe the installtion process will not be unloaded so fast and the file is in still in use when

the script tries to delete it.

Winwaitdelay seems not to work...

Can you give me some ideas...?

thx in advance

RunAsSet("***", "%Computername%","***")

FileCopy("K:\***\owc11.exe", "d:\")

Run ("D:\owc11.exe")

WinWaitActive ("Microsoft Office 2003 Web Components Setup", "To continue with Office")

Send ("!a")

Send ("!i")

WinWaitActive ("Microsoft Office 2003 Web Components Setup", "Microsoft Office 2003 Web Components Setup has completed successfully.")

Send ("{ENTER}")

AutoItSetOption ("WinWaitDelay",5000)

FileDelete("D:\owc11.exe")

RunAsSet( )

If this is your own (AutoIt written) Setup File... you could look at _SelfDelete() (in SciTe type in _SelfDelete and then spacebar), and OnAutoItExit().

Hi smoke...

i cannot find something about _selfdelete.. could you give me a little bit more information about it please ?!

do you have an idea why the command FileDelete("D:\owc11.exe") doesnt work in my script ?

Just try to monitor the PID and delete it when it is closed.

RunAsSet("***", "%Computername%","***")
FileCopy("K:\***\owc11.exe", "d:\")
$pid = Run ("D:\owc11.exe")
WinWaitActive ("Microsoft Office 2003 Web Components Setup", "To continue with Office")
Send ("!a")
Send ("!i")
WinWaitActive ("Microsoft Office 2003 Web Components Setup", "Microsoft Office 2003 Web Components Setup has completed successfully.")
Send ("{ENTER}")
AutoItSetOption ("WinWaitDelay",5000)
ProcessWaitClose($pid)
FileDelete("D:\owc11.exe")
RunAsSet( )

Note: selfdelete is the Scite4AutoIt3 abbreviation
