Script running multiple times

[ncc1701]

I have created a script to reconfigure settings for an application if it is installed. I am running it as a startup script with group policy in active directory. The script itself works fine. However, on some of my computers the script is running twice, interfering with itself. I have no idea how it is being launched twice. Other than launching the application it is not launching any thing else.

I am fairly new at Autoit. Is there something I can do to troubleshooot how it is running twice on the same machine? Group policy is the only thing launching it. Keep in mind it is not doing it on every machine just a few.

Thanks in advance for your help.

maybe have it write to a file with today's date. When ran again, it checks the date?

I should have read the FAQ first like suggested.

A1. You can use a function called _Singleton to detect multiple instances of your script.

I will try this. I think this may solve my issue.

Thanks for your suggestion though. I will try that if this doesn't work.
