AutoHotkey Community

I have a problem, i tried to compile this simple code:


When I run this code, it displays the msg alwaysontop and with the red error icon (X).

But, when I compile it, I get a yellow triangle instead of the red circle.
Here are both files:
http://www.autohotkey.net/~cyberman/msgbox.zip

Any ideas?

Works fine for me, what AutoHotkeySC.bin do you use, try to install latest AutoHotkey.

Sorry to say on my old system (Windows ME) using AHK 1.0.48 (not the newest) the MsgBox when compiled looks just like when running the script.

I'll try on XP also.

Edit: Looks the same on XP also. No problem here

Installed it today, I don't know what AutoHotkeySC.bin you mean, I use AHK with standard options and the compiler provided in the download.


So you get the same with the script and the file I compiled? Is there any alternative compiler I can use?

I can't run your .exe on my system (Windows ME). I get an error:



But, when I compile with the older AutoHotkey both the script and my compiled .exe have the same icon. No problem.

WARNING!

Don't run that msgbox.exe posted in the zip above. Like a sap I tried it on my XP machine and am now in the process of having to do a system restore. The computer just keeps adding many Winlogon.exe to the processes over and over again, even after a reboot. I did get a msgbox with yellow triangle and exclamation point after the first reboot. Subsequent reboots just kept hourglassing and adding many many winlogon.exe entries to Windows processes.

Fortunately, I had a system restore from last night that seems to have fixed the problem.

Doesn't happen to me, and the file is a compiled version of the script. Don't know what you are saying...
I rebooted my computer and compiled it again. Now it shows the right icon.
Thanks anyway!

I'm saying the msgbox.exe screwed up my computer AND I was warning other people to not run it.

I downloaded the files an hour ago, but didn't start them yet. After your warning i decompiled the exe. There are just these two lines of code shown above(just the msgBox number seems different)...
