A few questions. I want to be copy path+filename text to the clipboard so I can paste it. But I'd like to do this only in an explorer shell.

Can anyone tell me why the first snippet doesn't work (but falls into the if), and the second one does?

Also is the test for an explorer shell a good way to test?

Code:
#^c::
WinGetActiveTitle, h_Title
WinGetClass, h_Class, %h_title%
WinGet, h_Application, ProcessName, %h_title%
If ( ( h_Application = "explorer.exe" ) and ( h_Class = "CabinetWClass" ) )
{
   Send, ^c
   ClipWait
   Sort, clipboard  ; This also converts to text (full path and name of each file).
   ;msgbox, yes %h_Class%`n%h_Application%`n%h_Title%
}
return


Code:
#^c::
   Send, ^c
   ClipWait
   Sort, clipboard  ; This also converts to text (full path and name of each file).
return

So when you Ctrl-V in a text editor after running the hotkey, it outputs the copied text for you with that change?

Yes, tested with:
Code:
#^c::
WinGetActiveTitle, h_Title
WinGetClass, h_Class, %h_title%
WinGet, h_Application, ProcessName, %h_title%
If ( ( h_Application = "explorer.exe" ) and ( h_Class = "ExploreWClass" ) )
{
   Send, ^c
   ClipWait
   Sort, clipboard  ; This also converts to text (full path and name of each file).
   msgbox, yes %h_Class%`n%h_Application%`n%h_Title%
}
return

I added the case for for correctness.

I've noticed that it works sometimes.

If I contually press the hotkey several times, it will work. Usually though, for a single press, the clipboard will not contain the text.

I tried a couple different hotkey combos with no luck, thought it might be the windows key messing something up.

The cursor always turns briefly to the hourglass, so it looks like its doing something even when it does't end up working.

Code:
^8::
WinGetActiveTitle, h_Title
WinGetClass, h_Class, %h_title%
WinGet, h_Application, ProcessName, %h_title%
If ( ( h_Application = "explorer.exe" ) and (( h_Class = "CabinetWClass" ) or ( h_Class = "ExploreWClass" )))
{
   Send, ^c
   ClipWait
   Sort, clipboard  ; This also converts to text (full path and name of each file).
   ;msgbox, yes %h_Class%`n%h_Application%`n%h_Title%
}
return

Figured it out. It always worked the second time.

Had to ad a line:

Code:
clipboard = ; clear clipboard

Forgot that, this is the example from the help file:
Code:
clipboard =  ; Start off empty to allow ClipWait to detect when the text has arrived.
Send ^c
ClipWait  ; Wait for the clipboard to contain text.
MsgBox Control-C copied the following contents to the clipboard:`n`n%clipboard%
