I've been using AutoIT3 for only a day now but I am facing a problem where I need to be able to handle different windows title.

I'm using WinWaitActive(title) to apply actions once the window I'm expecting becomes active but in certain circumstances it is possible that a window with another name comes up instead, in which case my script hangs because it's waiting for another window.

How do you handle different window titles possibilities?

Something like:

While 1
    If WinActive("title1","Subtext1") then 
        
    ElseIf WinActive("title2","Subtext2") then 
        
    EndIf
    Sleep(10)
WEnd
