Re: Mapped Keys Only Work Once Topic is solved

I ended up on a slightly different route, has a few extra files but works great. I broke out each key mapping into their own EXE files, and I control them all with this: 1:: run, 1.exe Process, Close, 2.exe Process, Close, 3.exe return 2:: run, 2.exe Process, Close, 1.exe Process, Close, 3.exe retur...

Re: Mapped Keys Only Work Once Topic is solved

One way you could get it to simply interrupt and not go back and finish the playlist from the first press (whether it was interrupted by the same hotkey or a different one) is by setting a flag to indicate if it is actively playing a playlist when another hotkey is pressed, and if so, set a value i...

Re: Mapped Keys Only Work Once Topic is solved

My testing with adding #MaxThreadsPerHotkey, 2 does show that the same hotkey will interrupt mid-song, but that it indeed does go back and finish the playlist from the first press after the playlist from the second press finishes. thanks very much for the info, I was always a little unclear about t...

Re: Mapped Keys Only Work Once Topic is solved

Hotkeys 2 and 3 can interrupt hotkey 1 because they're different hotkeys. You can interrupt the same hotkey if you change the max number of threads allowed, but I'm not sure you'll get the results you want. Even if it interrupts itself cleanly, it should go back and finish the one you interrupted a...

Re: Mapped Keys Only Work Once Topic is solved

Eliminate the "2" and "3" routines. Eliminate the ESC hotkey. You are left with the "1" routine. Post the revision where you are displaying the name of the file that is about to be played and does not play. #SingleInstance, Force 1:: FileList := "" ; clears file list Loop, %A_ScriptDir%\playlist01\...

Re: Mapped Keys Only Work Once Topic is solved

As another data point, the script works as expected for me. After the playlist finishes, I can press the same hotkey again, and it plays it again in a new random order. The file variables are not the right variables for that loop. It is not a file loop it is a parsing loop, so you have to use A_Loo...

Re: Mapped Keys Only Work Once Topic is solved

You can debug this by displaying the file path just before the SoundPlay. What do you find in those cases where the file is not played? if I insert "msgbox, %A_LoopFileFullPath%" (or A_LoopField) right before soundplay, it shows nothing. The files get played no problem, but if I press 1, 2 or 3 aga...

Mapped Keys Only Work Once Topic is solved

I'm making a playlist thingie which plays randomly ordered song files out of different folders, using mapped keys: 1:: play contents of folder 1 2:: play contents of folder 2 3:: play contents of folder 3 and they work great, until I try to press 1, 2 or 3 for a second time ... which does not work. ...

Re: Preserving "Last Accessed" Datestamp In Shortcuts Topic is solved

Yah I totally agree. Back in 2001 - 2005 there wasn't much in the way of cleaning software the general average user was looking for. The approach to cleaning out temp files was two-faceted... dealing with temp Windows files was rarely done and led to many slowdowns (and brought me a lot of work back...

Re: Preserving "Last Accessed" Datestamp In Shortcuts Topic is solved

The script exited when I tested it. If yours does not exit, hover over the icon first, to ensure that you are not seeing a "ghost" or remnant of the icon. If the script did not exit, you can backtrack in the subroutine to find out which commands are executing. In terms of the dates, you may be seei...

Unsure if this works, not sure how to trigger a proper test, try throwing in a pointer from a .CUR file you place in your script folder... apologies if no worky ; load custom pointer from file: ThisPointer() ; calls the pointer function, use it before the hourglass appears ; bla bla script stuff whi...

Re: Preserving "Last Accessed" Datestamp In Shortcuts Topic is solved

Here's the entire script if anyone's interested. For some reason its not exiting completely, it leaves the icon in the systray. I think I might be the cause of this problem but I'm unable to figure out how. Here is the entire package. Sort of works, will not actually move anything of yours at all bu...

Re: Preserving "Last Accessed" Datestamp In Shortcuts Topic is solved

I tried the basic loop, worked just fine. What makes you think that it does not work? Have you used an AHK command to display the date before and after, and found differences in the cases when Continue does not occur? Yes sir, I've been able to confirm that. But then next morning when I run it agai...

Re: Preserving "Last Accessed" Datestamp In Shortcuts Topic is solved

Just my own view: it seems to me that the greater intrusion would be disabling a feature that the Windows user had been using. In reality, of course, I think that very few people would really use this feature or care about it. Cleanup programs tap into it, to figure out which files have not been ac...

Re: Preserving "Last Accessed" Datestamp In Shortcuts Topic is solved

I'm going to try that disable command with a run comspec before the beginning of the loop, then re-enabling it after the loop, but only if it wasn't disabled initially (by checking that reg key) Then I'll wait until midnight and run the script again to see if it had any effect without a restart.

Re: Preserving "Last Accessed" Datestamp In Shortcuts Topic is solved

So that's kind of the equivalent of a registry change, I'd like to avoid that if possible as I hate "intruding" on anyone's computer to make arbitrary changes in the way their Windows deals with every shortcut from that point onwards. I would assume that being able to set that last accessed time wou...

Preserving "Last Accessed" Datestamp In Shortcuts Topic is solved

I'm not sure if it's Windows 10 acting weird, or if I'm doing this incorrectly. I'd like to check the "Last Accessed" time of a shortcut file (.lnk) and keep that time intact while I "access" the shortcut to get its target and icon. Not sure what's going on, is it that checking the access timestamp ...

Re: Unable to use correct icon in Listview Topic is solved

haha thanks :) I think it is actually "garry and teadrinker" who have the combined correct solution... I smashed them together is the only thing I did.
It works 100% so far. I will try your current downloader, looks awesome, and thanks again.
