GaryFrost Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 1st one, have you tried a runwait instead of run? 2nd one, try Send command instead of controlsettext SciTE for AutoItDirections for Submitting Standard UDFs Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference.

rado354 Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 You guys are just awesome!; Delete Desktop's Shortcut Filedelete ( @DesktopDir & "\EVEREST Ultimate Edition.lnk" )And no more desktop shortcut ; Rename StartMenu's Shortcut FileMove ( "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Everest\EVEREST Ultimate Edition.lnk", "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Everest\Everest 2.80.534.lnk", 1 )And StartMenu's shortcut renamed successfully However %systemdrive% instead of C: doesn't seem to work...My first fully customized silent installer (Everest Ultimate Edition 2.80.534) is done It will install, reg, config, del/rename shortcuts!

Moderators SmOke_N Posted July 1, 2006 Moderators Share Posted July 1, 2006 Quick question:orIt deletes all shortcuts in the AC3Filter menu, but not the cascade menu itself How to delete AC3Filter?Thanks again DirRemove()? Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.
