h711 Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I need to launch my script from target program location. So I do the following: FileChangeDir("E:\") Run("Install.exe") This code works fine if you run it from .au3 file, but once you compiled it to exe and click on it, it will repeatedly launch itself endless times. Run("E:\Install.exe")works fine for both .au3 and .exe. So I assume FileChangeDir("E:\") is the part that caused the trouble. Any ideas? Thanks!

h711 Posted September 9, 2008 Author Share Posted September 9, 2008 Ok, I found a way out. FileChangeDir("E:") Run("\Install.exe") This seems to work for both .au3 and .exe. I guess it is the "\" been handled differently for .au3 and .exe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks!maybe theres a file in E that is called install.exe and that runs install.exe and it goes on in a loop?? OR MAYBE ITS BECAUSE FILECHANGEDIR DOES NOT MAKE THE SCRIPT LOOK FOR INSTALL.EXE IN DRIVE E:\ YOU NEED TO MAKE IT RUN("E:\INSTALL.EXE") AND THAT SHOULD WORK!

You compiled your script to Install.exe and that caused it to run it self endlessly Edited September 9, 2008 by trancexx ♡♡♡ . eMyvnE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
