SmOke_N 210 Posted September 4, 2006 (edited) Compile this then run the exe, then check and the exe will be gone. MsgBox(0,"", "It does work") _SelfDelete() Func _SelfDelete($iDelay = 0) Local $sCmdFile FileDelete(@TempDir & "\scratch.bat") $sCmdFile = 'ping -n ' & $iDelay & '127.0.0.1 > nul' & @CRLF _ & ':loop' & @CRLF _ & 'del "' & @ScriptFullPath & '"' & @CRLF _ & 'if exist "' & @ScriptFullPath & '" goto loop' & @CRLF _ & 'del ' & @TempDir & '\scratch.bat' FileWrite(@TempDir & "\scratch.bat", $sCmdFile) Run(@TempDir & "\scratch.bat", @TempDir, @SW_HIDE) EndFunc And then say sorry to Smoke_NDamn... I was waiting to see if he stepped to I'm a complete invalid status before someone gave him the "complete" hold your hand answer.

Jabberwock 0 Posted September 4, 2006 At first you said all you needed was "SelfDelete " <---WITH A SPACE Then you gave me some random func that i had no idea would actually delete it self once executed, then you say COPY AND PASTE EXACTLY, which i did, then run it, which i did, Nothing happened but your scarastic msgbox, then you edit it and claim nothing was changed, _SelfDelete() was added to execute the func, the core code may of been there all along, but you were defintily mistaken.

Do you make your woman do all the work as well? 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.

Jabberwock 0 Posted September 4, 2006 You keep editing your stuff, please.... In the VERY begging you gave me no func what so ever, i'm not a fucking idiot, ("SelfDelete " <--*Space*) was all that was given, then later you post some Func that defines the selfdelete which Really does not even look like it would make it delete the file, which i was mistaken there.

If you don't know how to make a function run "after" someone has given it to you, then yes, you most certainly look like an idiot. Edit: And you drink a 12 / 13 / 18 pack and answer stupid questions like what you've posted and see how many times you edit.

BigDod 518 Posted September 4, 2006 @JabberwockPlease stop sending me PMs about this and just admit that you did something wrong.Download the latest SciTe and try it again and it should work. If it does not work there is something wrong with your setup. Time you enjoyed wasting is not wasted time ......T.S.
