No offense intended, but this is blatantly false. Take any good hex editor and try to modify a few bytes in a big file (I just did it again on a 650 MB file) -> saving the changes takes under 0.1 sec.
The reason why is those editors support disk-based editing. |

| How do i make an instant notification if a new file is added to a folder? I was thinking somewhere along the lines of a system hook on the folder? I would ultimately like to get a notification when something is placed on my desktop (like firefox download completes on the desktop) Hi thesoupmeat, I'... |

| now that i think of it, process monitor (by Mark Russinovich) does manage to detect file system events (file reads, writes, etc) instantly, without the need for a driver! So it is possible, perhaps by way of notifiers or hooks... Anything like that is possible in AHK? This is way beyond my own exper... |

| I just want to look at the file extension. I know it's not a perfect solution, but I'm not looking for one. Just some nice additional protection layer on top of my existing security setup. |

| Hi, As part of a security-oriented script (anti-malware), I'm looking for a way to block some executables from being launched. Any ideas on what functions could be used? I guess the ideal solution would be driver-level code, but still would like an AHK solution if possible. Note that I'm not looking... |

If some executable *without a window associated* (say, winlogon.exe) has been
launched multiple times, how would you get the count of instances currently running ?
(I'm aware of Winget, but that requires a window I believe) |

| OK, so I know that preventing decompilation of exe to ahk is technically impossible, but it can be made a lilttle bit more difficult, nevertheless. That would at least keep away casual attempts. What are your favorite methods to do that? I, for one, like to use ResHacker to change the file version f... |

really cool!
would love to see other eye-candy-type window transitions
(such as a "dissolving" effect when closing a window, or a window
assembling from 2 halves flying in from opposing sides of the screen) |

| In the pointless-but-fun department, why not use AHK to draw Window Art (like ASCII art but using caption-less Windows as tiles)... this is just a little example, you can tell my drawing skills are not that great... but if anyone wants to give it a try... could be fun ;) and the AHK limit on 100 GUI... |
