mikeyww This did not work well. It only opened links not highlighted and were already in the clipboard. Any links that were highlighted did not work. Regardless, thank you for showing me new ways to go about things. If you have any other ideas please let me know because this is still not solved. I ...

This script's purpose is to do the following: If a URL or string is in the clipboard when the hotkey is triggered the open the chrome browser and search google if it is a plain non-url string and open a website directly if it is a website URL. The script should always work and open the chrome browse...

This script will do the following: If a hotkey is activated on an active explorer.exe window it will open the Linux version the hotkey corresponds to in the Windows Terminal to the path in the active explorer window. If a hotkey is activated on any other window besides explorer.exe it will open the ...

This works but is not efficient.

If I can make a features request for code the recognizes additional tabs to be opened I would like to do so now.

Regardless thank you for helping me.

I want to loop an array of folder names and open them in Explorer, but I want all folders to open in a single Explorer window as separate tabs and not multiple Explorer windows. This code does what I don't want, open each folder path in a new explorer window. How can I get it to open one window and ...

Hello,

This may help.

How to position a menu

yeah I am still struggling. I already looked at this... my bad! Any other help would be great at this point.

I feel (and know) that this can not be the most efficient way of coding this. I still have not figured out how to center the popup menu. It currently opens up at the current mouse position. Purpose: Open a popup menu centered on the screen and allow the user to select the folder that will then be op...

Thank you guys! Both work great.

I want to recursively search this folder path "C:\Program Files (x86)\FolderName". I want to store the names of the files to search for in an array delArray := [ 'Name1.exe', 'Name2.exe' ] Then take the names stored in the array and loop them to search the directory recursively and if a match is fou...

I can't believe it but I fixed it by removing the '!' from the list of characters that are looped.

So it went from to

So I am having trouble opening WSL using the wsl.exe that I start using PowerShell that I also start powershell using cmd.exe.... So anyways everything works great EXCEPT when there are paths that have numbers in them ... so 0-9... For example, I can activate the hotkey on an explorer window with th...

OK so this worked. Thanks for the heads up Tensai.

I have been looking for a way to execute text-to-speech when a hotkey successfully completes and came across some old ahk v1 posts on Google but can't make the examples work. Below is all I have so far. Can anyone give me some advice? _delDone := ComObjCreate("SAPI.SpVoice").Speak("Peter Piper picke...

I use it to save pictures as zip files. I click a download link using the latest Chrome browser that will download a zip file full of pictures and the name of the said file will be a random string of characters. So it could be default named "1231237-asdad.zip" or "797u9asdj.zip" So when I click the ...

I'll give what I think is a simple hokey and explain what happens and then explain what I am trying to accomplish. The first undesirable popup box would happen when defining variables such as PID := WinGetPID(win) This would spawn a pop-up box stating that the window that is was looking for which wa...

I swear I looked for this answer before posting this.

I want to get ride of the TargetError box popup windows.

Does anyone know a one liner?

I am trying the
with no success

@slyfox1186, I can confrim FG's findings - no timeout error here. Afaics, the Winwait function just gives feedback via its return value if it timed out, like documented. You should show your code. You are right, I have posted my code in the original question with a brief explanation as to what the ...

swagfag Your logic checks out and that makes me think that there should be a MUCH better way of handling these exceptions. For example, if I don't want to see an unhandled exception popup warning box when winwait doesn't find the window it is looking for then by god there should be a way to disable...

Updated: As someone who is way smarter than me (lol) pointed out I really needed to show you the code that I am having these issues with. This script will open one of 4 possible windows store apps when one of the 4 corresponding hotkeys are pressed. On some presses I get NO error box.... however the...

I must have been really tired not to figure this out myself.... thank you.
