FileOpen(), iniwrite()

[narayanjr]

If Not FileExists("C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini") Then
    FileOpen("C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini", 9)
    IniWrite("C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini", "Settings", "Color_Mode", "")
    IniWrite("C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini", "Settings", "Tele_Key", "")
    ShellExecute("C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini", "", "C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\")
    WinWait("Settings - Notepad")
    While WinActivate("Settings - Notepad")
        sleep(2000)
    WEnd
    FileClose("C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini")
EndIf

If the folder does not exist I want it to create the folder then make the file and write the stuff to it.

When the folder does not exist and it is made it wont save. I get this error,

Cannot create the C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini file

Make sure that the path and filename are correct.

But if the folder already exists then it has no problem saving the file.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Tip: Lose the FileOpen() and FileClose()

IniWrite() doesn't need to work successfully.

If Not FileExists(@ProgramFilesDir & "\ArW-Pikid") Then
    $dc = DirCreate(@ProgramFilesDir & "\ArW-Pikid")
    If $dc = 1 Then
        IniWrite(@ProgramFilesDir & "\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini", "Settings", "Color_Mode", "")
        IniWrite(@ProgramFilesDir & "\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini", "Settings", "Tele_Key", "")
        ShellExecute(@ProgramFilesDir & "\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini")
    EndIf
ElseIf FileExists(@ProgramFilesDir & "\ArW-Pikid") Then
    IniWrite(@ProgramFilesDir & "\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini", "Settings", "Color_Mode", "")
    IniWrite(@ProgramFilesDir & "\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini", "Settings", "Tele_Key", "")
    ShellExecute(@ProgramFilesDir & "\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini")  
EndIf

Try this:

If FileExists("C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini") = 0 Then
    DirCreate("C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\")
    IniWrite("C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini", "Settings", "Color_Mode", "")
    IniWrite("C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini", "Settings", "Tele_Key", "")
    ShellExecuteWait("C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\Settings.ini", "", "C:\Program Files\ArW-Pikid\")
EndIf
