dbowe Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 Hi peeps. I have a box that pops up after installing an application....its just a yes/no reboot box. With AutoIt i can make it select "no" and then "Finish"....but sometimes the yes/no reboot box is minimized and autoit isnt detecting its there............ Is there a way to have this box closed even when its minimized? Im currently using the following script.... WinWaitActive("InstallShield Wizard", "Yes, I want to restart my computer now.") Send("{DOWN}") Send("{ENTER}") eek!

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.
MHz Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 Do you know that InstallShield can record an installation is it is executable based or if it is a msi based, then you can use switches that can prevent reboot and the rest. Have you looked at those options first? Some simple switches could save you some issues.
