I searched a while but found no similar, but over 18000 posts....

My problem:
Start the following script, runs one time by pressing ^Win, all fine
second by pressing ^Win time nothing happens, no trayaccess to Autohokey, it must be killed.

I now its my fault but what did I miss???

;Script
^LWin::
Gui, Add, Button,gButtons, B1
Gui, Add, Button,gButtons, B2
Gui, Add, Button,gButtons, B3
Gui, Add, Button,gButtons, B4
Gui, Add, Button,gButtons, B5
Gui, Add, Button,gButtons, B6
Gui, Add, Button,gButtons, B7
Gui, Show, Blabla
Return

Buttons:
Gui, Cancel
Gui, Destroy
MsgBox, %A_GuiControl% was clicked
return

The next code works fine for me:

Tried, but helps nothing

My idea is the gui should go away after pressing a button, and reapear after pressing ^win

Well, simply add
Gui, hide after the messagebox:

Hi Neyon

Thanks for help,
but I think we missunderstand us.
The messagebox is only a debug output

I would like to close the gui after each press of a button.
and reopen if I press ^Win
Assume, I have no keyboard (TabletPC) only one programmable key and
I would like to have special operations from a application to run.

Show gui, press button and close gui running only first time.
But then Autokey seems to hang and wait for something.
I am not able to open the contextmenu and a restart of autohotkey
gives: "another instance of...."
I have to kill the process.

But, i can not exit the script (Trayicon Rightmouse)

What do you mean?
1) Can't you exit the script, when you right click on the tray icon?
2) Or can't you right click on the tray icon?
3) Or can't you exit the script without clicking on the tray icon?

Solution
to 1) There is something fishy. should work

to 2) Use "menu, tray, default" to specify exit as the default action when the tray icon is double clicked.

to 3) Add this to your code

[michu]

With your solution 1 and 3
with all other tries 1,2,3

It is possible that "Gui, Destroy" is not working properly?
