With FileInstall you have to have full directory i.e.

$location=@MyDocumentsDir & "\"

FileInstall("C:\Users\Default\Videos\Video.avi", $location, 1)

ShellExecute('Wmplayer.exe', $location & "Video.avi"), ' ', 'open')

WinWaitActive("windows media player")

WinWaitClose("windows media player")

FileDelete($location & "Video.avi")

FileInstall("Directory on your Computer with file and extention cannot be a variable", "Directory on other persons computer to place it")

WinWaitActive("Windows Media Player")
WinWaitClose("Windows Media Player")
FileDelete($location & "untitled.avi")

the destination of FileInstall needs to include extensions too.

try these four things, one at a time:

1) does the files actually exist in its original directory? if not, there's your problem

2) comment out every thing after the fileinstall. Then, go look in my documents

3) replace fileinstall with filecopy & try.

4) replace fileinstall with filecopy, comment out everything after filecopy, then go check for the file's existence.

my guess is that you are ShellExecuting incorrectly. Try reviewing the paramenters for it.

I use this in one of my scripts:

FileInstall(".\Includes\Process.exe", $rvdir & "\")

"." goes from script dir to make it easily compileable cause several people compile to help on going process.

So with yours this should work as long as you have the file in this directory: (C:\Users\default\Desktop\untitled.avi)

$location = @MyDocumentsDir & "\"
FileInstall("C:\Users\default\Desktop\untitled.avi", $location, 1)
ShellExecute('Wmplayer.exe', $location & "untitled.avi", ' ', 'open')
WinWaitActive("Windows Media Player")
WinWaitClose("Windows Media Player")
FileDelete($location & "untitled.avi")
