Hi all,
First, thanks to all you cool guys for sharing your codes.....
I have an item in Right Click -> Send To menu say "Compress (zipped) Folder" that i want to launch thru AutoHotkey.
To compress files i select few files and then right click then send to and wait for a long time to see Compress (zipped) Folder. Instead of waiting for a long time would we be possible to run that Compress (zipped) Folder using AuotHotkey help?
Ideally, what i am thinking is to select files then press Hot key to get compressed files. I have fewother things in send to and i need to use those frequently.
I tried "spy" and other tools that you guys shared..but could not figure out...
Your help you will highly be appreciated.

do you mean, the Compression takes a long time?
If so, then there will be no speed-up thrugh using ahk.
If you just wait a long time until the send-to menu shows, then a hotkey solution will speed things up. Then you should create a script,
that on Hotkey-press
-sends CTRL+C
-copies the clipboard to a var (use ClipWait and Clipboard)
-then runs your compression-program with the clipboard content as cmd-line parameter (use Run)
