No, there is no such limit - but there is certainly a limit what a specific program can process in a short time (the key presses from your hotkey will occur in rapid succession). Perhaps the program you are sending it to, just isn't ready after the first {enter}, in the moment the second {enter} wil...

Thanks, tank. It is visible now.

I have no final conclusion, but so far, I got it to work somehow with absolute paths for the profiles. I created two test profiles via the profile manager ( by running firefox.exe -P at the command prompt; first shut down all running Firefox instances ), called "Test" and "test2". But the correspond...

Yeah, that seems to be unintentional: The forum is visible/read-only for unregistered users/logged-out users, but completely invisible to logged-in users (who are not members of the group - who can still apply for membership in the Usergroups section of the control panel, though). I remember that it...

Regarding: Broken Link for safety I don't think you should have changed the license notice from AutomatedWriter.ahk! That is just the forum software applying anti-spam rules to new users (well, more precisely, users with low post counts). I think, NackJich could have done nothing to prevent it. I f...

Try {text} mode for SendInput:

Code: Select all

Sendinput {text}(!)|(\?)|(:)|(;)

(available in AHK version 1.1.27+)

Perhaps you copy/pasted an invisible character from somewhere into your script. Try to delete the line and type it again by hand...

Edit: Which AHK version are you using (and which bitness? ANSI/Unicode?) ?

This works for me with a hotstring : ::!up::Hello world It seems you are missing a : Or, do want to replace a string with : ? ::colon::: ; replaces "colon" with ":" But if you want to use a command like Send in a one-line-hotstring, you need to use the X option (AHK version 1.1.28+): :X:colon::Send :

Either there is something to modify, then ! is a modifier - or there is nothing to modify, then ! is a !:

Code: Select all

!::msgbox

If you want to remap Alt alone, then you can use:

Code: Select all

alt::msgbox alt

Finally, Alt + !

Code: Select all

!!::msgbox

Glad that I could help!

And thanks for the detailed feedback - perhaps it can help someone else in the future!

What is the problem/error when you use Run, "G:\Games\Renault\Truck Racing\Bin\Shortcut to RTR.lnk" ? Have you tried the UseErrorlevel option of Run to see what is going on? Perhaps wrong working directory? If the lnk-shortcut is working via double-click, you might have to set the working directory ...

In an expression, it will do a double-deref:
See here for explanation: https://autohotkey.com/docs/Language.htm#dynamic-variables

Perhaps a permissions issue. Try running the script 'as admin' on the laptop.

There was a post, but thenomad deleted his/her post later for the reason "found my problem". You came too late ;) (I actually read the post and didn't understand the problem.) In such a case, the forum notification doesn't get removed, afaik (an email notification can't be cancelled anyway). But it ...

Welcome to the forum, I just saw that you added today your signature (and tried to add another link to the post above that you made yesterday) - well, we have no exact rules for signatures, but we don't like spam. In my opinion, the signature should have at least a loose relation to the topic of thi...

Please show your updated code that causes this error message.

I don't think that there are many Pushbullet users here, so perhaps try to re-phrase your question and show that you are ready to do at least parts of the heavy lifting. The Pushbullet part might be the trickiest part (which btw is not reflected at all in the topic title) - what could you find out i...

Creating hotkeys, left of the ::, you don't use { } :

Code: Select all

F6::
Send,a b c d e f g {Enter}{up}{right}{Space}
return

You only use { } with Send, for special keys.
