| NB: You dont put a return at the end of a loop to re-execute it, and also check which SetTitleMatchMode is set. |

If you meant window exits then try this:
| Code: | IfWinExist, AutoHotkey Help
{
Loop
{
MsgBox, ,Test,Help is Running,1
sleep,2000
ifWinNotExist, AutoHotkey Help
break
}
}
|
and watch out for case sensitivity of window titles and, as mentioned by Tic, SetTitleMatchMode if necessary.

| Code: |
!1:: ; Alt + 1
IfWinExist, AutoHotkey Help
{
Loop
{
MsgBox, ,Test,Help is Running,1
sleep,2000
ifWinNotExist, AutoHotkey Help
break
}
Return
}

Give That A Go...
Otherwise You Could Use The #persistant Function |
