After so many years using AHK, I have a script that isn't working as expected and I need to step through it. I've done searches on debugging these scripts, but it has just left me totally confused. Having come from a programming background, I'm use to running code in a debugger, where I can step thr...

Thank you sir! I've been using ahk for so long I completely forgot about that.

One of my hot-key scripts sends a hardcoded string via the SendRaw statement that changes monthly. This month, that string contains a % sign, similar to this: SendRaw abcdefg12345%wxyz Now when I boot up and my ahk file loads, it throws a invalid variable error, which does make sense, then quits. Is...

Still wrestling with this issue. I've even resorted to playing with Process Explorer and Process Monitor, but they really are no help.

I did find something interesting in RegEdit

Do these two entries make any sense?

Any other ideas here? I removed the shortcut from the Startup folder an created a new one, making sure it pointed to the script, not the exe. (Spent a couple hours chasing down that mistake some years ago). I can click on Start -> All Programs, scroll down to the Startup folder, click on it, then on...

Sweet!!!!!

Thanks for the reply #boiler. Manually running it from the Startup folder works fine. I have always had the following code at the top of the script: ; ; ; Log the boot time ; FormatTime, OutputLine, , yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss FileDelete, c:\BootTime.txt FileAppend, %OutputLine%, c:\BootTime.txt Yes, this...

That's one of the first things I checked and there is nothing blocking it.

Same issue here in Atlanta. Takes about 30 seconds to load each page and not having issues with any other sites. Brutal!!!

I have a shortcut to AHK in my Startup folder on a Windows 7 Ultimate x64 machine. Its been working just fine for years. Just noticed this week that it no long loads at startup while everything else in the startup folder works. I've checked Event Viewer and don't see anything there. Can't find any t...

In the words of Homer Simpson: DOH!

Thank you

I need to send a combination of Ctrl + Shift + right arrow to highlight a chunk of text that the cursor is next to. I've tried a number of things, using Send, Send Keys and with the combination of ^!{Right}, but nothing is working correctly. What am I missing?

09KR0058

Excellent! Thank yo so much.

I wasn't aware of any of those options, and the expression approach is very cool.

Kinda embarrassed to be asking this after many, many years of using AHK, but how do I send trailing spaces with the Send command? Here's the two lines of code: FormatTime, TimeStamp, , M/d/y hh:mmtt Send %TimeStamp% - Notice at the end of the Send line, there is a space, dash and a trailing space. H...

Perfect. Thank you so much. Guess I didn't dig deep enough. Had no idea that KeyWait could be used for mouse clicks.

09KR0058

Thanks for the reply GEV, but that's not quite what I need. Also, I didn't explain myself very well. Here's how the flow of the script should be: Script is started via hotkey and waits for user to click somewhere on the screen Use MouseGetPos and save the X & Y coordinates Wait for user to click som...

I have a script where I need the user to click somewhere on a window and get the mouse coordinates of where they clicked. Input won't work as it waits for a string to be entered. Is there some way to do this? Don't really need a prompt, as it would be at the beginning when the script is first run by...

Trying to lock a Windows 7 machine via AHK. Normally, to do this you just hold down the Windows key and hit the letter l (lowercase L). I have tried it the following 3 ways, but none of them work: Send #l Send, {LWin Down}l{LWin Up} Send, {LWin down} Send l Send, {LWin up} Am I missing something obv...

Every script has a systemtray icon of it's own if it's not manually disabled by #NoTrayIcon. AHK itself doesn't have one as it just runs in the background. Don't mean to beat a dead horse here, but when I start the AutoHotkey executable at boot time, it does place an icon in the system tray. This g...
