I want to have a button that
-Starts winamp if it is not started
- If it is started i want the same button to toggle between activated and minimized.

I have made multiple versions of this script and in the end just copy/pasted what someone made for windows media player. But the button only minimizes winamp, not maximizes. Anyone can see the problem?

Code:

SetTitleMatchMode 2
Launch_Media::
#IfWinNotExist Winamp
  Run C:\Program Files\Winamp\winamp.exe 
WinGet, WinampState, MinMax, Winamp
  If (WinampState = -1) ; -1 means minimized
    WinRestore, Winamp
  Else
    WinMinimize, Winamp
return
return

this is my first attempy at autohotkey so i probably made a silly mistake :/

Try this:

Code:

SetTitleMatchMode 2

Launch_Media::
WinGet, WinampState, MinMax, Winamp
IfWinNotExist Winamp
  Run C:\Program Files\Winamp\winamp.exe 
Else if (WinampState < 0) ; -1 means minimized
    WinRestore, Winamp
Else
    WinMinimize, Winamp
return

thanks that works, how did that fix it?
as far as i can see you changed
- #IfWinNotExist to IfWinNotExist
- put WinGet, WinampState, MinMax, Winamp on top
- and made winrestore and minminimize in the same if statement.
- and removed the 2nd return

which of these things fixed it you think?

Code:

#IfWinNotExist ;is used for case sensitive hotkeys, see help file
WinGet, WinampState, MinMax, Winamp ;This line can be executed anyway and you will have the state when you need it!
if statement ;works here like a switch, makes it easier
return ;there is no way to reach second return!
