Multiple Windows at same time

[notta]

Setting up an automated installer. How do you handle this situation?

After the installer completes the installer launches 3 windows in random order.

1. Updater Window that launches a browser window to show updates available for the product.

2. The browser window

3. A config window that allows you to set settings for the application

I only want to work with the config window. I used ProcessClose ("Iexplore.exe") but the times are completely random on what window pops first, second, or third. How do I get it so I can close the other 2 windows and than let the script complete when I have the config window on the screen alone? I'm all over place, but I will try to clarify if you don't understand what I'm saying. Thanks.

here is what I have:

Try using these three functions:

WinWait;

WinGetHandle;

ControlClick;

Here is an attempt

The installShield installer may allow recording of the install and to silent install to make it easier.

Some directions for recording and to silent install below.

Make a recording of the installer with:

Setup.exe /r /sms /f1"c:\setup.iss"

The setup.iss is saved to the root of c:\ drive, as to above command.

Move the setup.iss to setup.exe directory.

The installation files can be packed into an archive, or kept within it's own directory, unpacked.

To silently install, use:

Setup.exe /s /sms /f2"c:\ProgramName.log"
