In a recent automation project, I found out that a child window of a process has the same PID as the parent process. The child windows were save as and some other app dialogs.
You may be able to verify this by adding specifying a PID in the last parameter of the run command:
Code:
Run, Target , WorkingDir, Max|Min|Hide|UseErrorLevel, OutputVarPID
and then find the PID for the child window by using a mousegetpos loop like this:
Code:
loop {
mouseGetPos,,, curUID
winGetTitle, curWIN, % "ahk_id " curUID
winGet, curPID, PID, % "ahk_id " curUID
tooltip, % "Current Window is: " curWIN "`nCurrent Pid is: " curPID
sleep, 100
}
esc::exitapp ; <- Press escape to exit.
I'm assuming that the original command is using comspec (as its cmd.exe). If so, use this to keep the command window open after the command has executed:
Code:
run %comspec% /k ""YourCommand.exe""
Then you can see the PID of the command window plus the child window ;_..
