Error trying to download the V1 and V2 files with current version number
Hi Folks, I've been using two scripts for many years to download the current AHK version number, compare it to what I'm running, and offer to download the installer or ZIP file. The download of the V1 and V2 files with the version number stopped working sometime within the past few days. I extracted...

Re: Storing PID of a window
How did you do that so quick? *I* did not. The bulk of the code was at the link that I gave you earlier in this thread (which I thought you had checked out when I posted it, but obviously not). All I did was add a few lines of code to display the taskbar position number in the ending MsgBox. WinAct...

Re: Storing PID of a window
pseudo-code Very helpful! I don't know much about Acc . There may be a way to get the PID inside the For Each,Child loop. Let's hope an Acc expert jumps in with that. Attached is a minor modification of the script that shows the position number on the taskbar for each button. The MsgBox at the end ...

Re: Storing PID of a window
Maybe I am not explaining myself adequately Maybe, or maybe it's me, but I am definitely not understanding what you want. For looking at all the buttons on the taskbar by position number, check out this script: https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=94563#p419941 The test MsgBox in there...

Re: Storing PID of a window
If they all have the same Title , how do you want to refer to them so that you'll know which PID opens which window? If the only way to know is via their positions on the taskbar, I would think that #N is as good a method as any. It's certainly easy enough to search all the PIDs in the system and fi...

Use the WinGet command with the PID subcommand.

Re: ScriptGuard: Helps Protect Compiled Scripts from Decompilation
is there a thread to tackle that? I don't know, but I think this is a fine place to discuss it. In TAC109's first post in this thread, he mentions MPRESS and UPX (in the ScriptGuard2 Restrictions section). Also, there are many other posts about compression/MPRESS/UPX during the almost four years si...

Re: ScriptGuard: Helps Protect Compiled Scripts from Decompilation
Maybe I'll try UPX then. Doesn't hurt to try it, but as I mentioned earlier, I've had terrible results over the years with it. Every so often I'll try UPX again, especially when there's been a new release, but the anti-virus/anti-malware programs always kill it. Once I found the sizing work-around ...

Re: ScriptGuard: Helps Protect Compiled Scripts from Decompilation
Can help please? Hi jsong, This is a common problem with MPRESS that I've had to deal with for many years. I'm pretty sure (but not certain) that it is related to the size of the executable. I say that because my work-around is to include or exclude some additional code (unused, of course) to make ...

Re: Cannot attach PDF file to post
Hi Joe,
Thanks for the idea! Just tested a PDF file inside a ZIP file...worked fine! Makes it all the more reasonable to allow uploads of PDFs directly. Regards, Joe

Re: Wrap
Any direction there would be apprecative ... how do I test it via pdf? You need to get the name of the PDF print driver (it's in Devices and Printers). For example, if you use a third-party PDF print driver, its name may be something like Bullzip PDF Printer, CutePDF Writer, doPDF 11, etc. If you u...

I don't want to guess at how you put together your code with the first script in garry's first post at that other thread. Please post the entire script that you are running.

Re: List of USB serial numbers
It's impossible for us to guess what your script is doing. If you want help troubleshooting it, post the entire script, or at least a sufficient enough portion of it for us to test it and see the problem.
