Abaddon Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Make sure you tried it like this...... Run("C:\\Program Files\\DAEMON Tools\\daemon.exe") Yes you have to have the double backslash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CyberSlug Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Check the Daemon Tools help file for command line options.... For example, I have the following script (compiled to an EXE) associated with ISO files. It allows me to double click an ISO, mount it as G:, and show the contents in Explorer: ; MountHelper.au3 Assumes that G: is the Daemon Tools Virtual drive... #noTrayIcon If $CmdLine[0] = 0 Then Exit FilechangeDir(@ScriptDir) RunWait('"daemon.exe" -unmount 0') RunWait('"daemon.exe" -mount 0, ' & """" & $CmdLine[1] & """") While DriveStatus("G:") = "NOTREADY" sleep(100) WEnd Run("explorer G:") Use Mozilla | Take a look at My Disorganized AutoIt stuff | Very very old: AutoBuilder 11 Jan 2005 prototype I need to update my sig!

Helge Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 (edited) Well, D-Tools does take command line parameters which would make that so much easier..Edit : CS, hey..you aren't supposed to be here ! Edited March 4, 2007 by Helge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
