| I honestly though this would work, so the solution is probably something very simple. I go between computers, each of them with their own version of Office, so I wanted to use this statement to open Word, for instance, no matter what version of Office is on the machine. Run "%A_ProgramFiles%\Mi... |

| My apologies if this is already done, but I couldn't find it in the Help file. I hoping for a ProcessExist() function, so I can use it as #IF or just IF conditions. I mean I can write my own, but I think people would find it useful. It'll be like WinExist(), but for programs that don't have windows.... |

| It never enters the if structure at all. I'm confused. It really should have worked. I'll try it again tmw, maybe i messed up something when adapting my script. I'll let you know. |

I will try that. Thanks. But should I report this, because it seems like it should have worked all the time.
Oh and that actually doesn't work for some reason. Just thought you should know. Although it looks like it should. |

| I would like to get you guys' opinion on this. I used MatcList as suggested above, but occasionally, a string that clearly contains mp4 slips though the condition on the if statement (I am using contain). By slip though I mean, if I were to rerun it, it would work properly. Is this a bug? It's not a... |

| My apologies. I actually have seen some of those pages already. It's just that I was hoping for more of a one/two line solution, instead of having to use a full fledge algorithm (to go though the registry) for a program that I only run from a couple of directories. Although, base on how many threads... |

| Thanks everyone for the input. It seems nimda's suggestion worked the best. However, I though the hide at the end of the line of code was supose to prevent the showing of the command prompt windows, and you can still see it for an instant, but that really doesn't matter to me. I do have a second que... |

| I was under the impression that Process Close is more similar to "takskill /f /im program.exe" as oppose to "taskkill /im program.exe". Is this not true? There is no need for me to make things more complicated if I do't have to? I would be glad to use Process Close, but from what... |

And what if I have multiple lines of code i want command prompt handle? Is it better to have multiple lines of this with different program names or to use the & symbol in one long command that gets passed? Just wanted an opinion.
thanks for the quick response. |

| In Windows Command prompt, there is a taskkill command when used int he form: taskkill /im [process name].exe will genitally close the program with [process name].exe. I am aware of WinClose, but that only works if [process name].exe has a window so it doesn't work for background apps that usually o... |

| My apologies. My concern is that script never specify a file path, which should have defaulted to the working directory. That's why I posted in this section as well as the Script Thread (I did post to the script thread first). I want to know if it's the way AutoHotkey determines the Working director... |
