Checkbox's

[malchai]

I've been trying this all day and can't figure out why the script won't uncheck this box.

WinWaitActive("Setup","to restore original files before")
ControlCommand("Setup","to restore original files before",13,"UnCheck","")

I have also used "Button9" instead of the ControlID, but no matter what i do it gets to that window and stops and never un checks that checkbox.

Button9 doesn't sound like a Checkbox.

Are you sure about the control info ?

Yeah, well as sure as i can be just starting. I open the AutoIT Window info and focus on the install. When that screen comes up i check all the controls to make sure they are unique and not some generic control. Each checkbox (and the text next to it) has its own CID and Button Name. I can click on any of the text to activate the checkbox in addition to the box itself.

What is the installer you are trying to automate ?

Can you show what AutoIt Info displays for this control. It could possibly be a hidden control which also catches me out some, and is hard to get around at times. I sometimes use AutoItMacroGenerator on the control in question and it gives me a different ControlID, as one can overlap another. So, some information on what you see could help us to help you.

I want to uncheck most of those boxes because i only want parts of this to be installed.
