selecting specific tab

[fr33m3]

Hi,

I want to select a specific tab when I pop up system properties but I'm not sure if / how you would do this. Next, I'm going to enter device settings for hardware in windows, is there a way to select a specific branch of the tree structure in those settings?

Thanks for the help in advance,

Fr33m3

Perhaps you would be better off using devcon.exe for this (command line device manager). I don't see how you will get far using the Device Manager.

This will open the Device Manager and select Monitors.

#Include <GuiTreeView.au3>

$title = "Device Manager"

If NOT WinExists($title) Then
    ShellExecute("devmgmt.msc")
    WinWait($title)
EndIf

WinActivate($title)

$hWnd = ControlGetHandle($title,'','[Class:SysTreeView32]')

$hwndMonitors = _GUICtrlTreeView_FindItem($hWnd, "Monitors", false)

_GUICtrlTreeView_SelectItem($hWnd, $hwndMonitors)

;_GUICtrlTreeView_SetFocused($hWnd, $hwndMonitors, true)

Thank you for the above suggestion regarding devcon. I have been toiling with trying to install INF files for the past day, your suggestion have resolved the problem. Good thing too since I was started to code the manual process of opening up Device Manager and update the driver.
