Try this syntax and so on...

If with parentheses means expression mode: no %s around variables, but quotes around literal strings.

Sounds like you used AHK v2 alpha before and now you installed the AHK main branch v1.
They use different syntaxes. Your code above looks like v2 code, but would display the described behaviour on v1, I suppose.

LCtrl is a standard modifier (Edit: Ah, Rohwedder added that already), so different rules apply - ideally, you should also use modifier symbols for modifiers, instead of eg LCtrl , when defining hotkeys: For standard modifier keys, normal hotkeys typically work as well or better than "custom" combi...

Try users[id] instead of users.id .
In the latter case, id would be treated as a literal string, but you'll need to treat is as a variable.

Browser wie Chrome, FireFox & Edge lassen sich wohl auch mit Chrome.ahk steuern. Dazu solltest du im Forum bereits Beiträge finden. Chrome.ahk ist eigentlich für Chromium-basierte Browser - dazu gehört Firefox nicht. Jedoch hat GeekDude mal einen Ansatz im Chrome.ahk-Topic gezeigt, wie man ggf Chro...

Yes, AHK can work with COM interfaces, generally (MS Office, Photoshop, foobar, Adobe Acrobat, and so on). It has no special IE support - that is built into Windows. If you add a whole lot of bagagge to automate Chrome into autohotkey.exe you will have to carry that code with you the whole time (als...

Trying to send these alt codes is not a good idea, imho.
You can also try: (requires AHK v1.1.27+)

Perhaps @gregster will have ideas. Atm not much, I don't think I have encountered this scenario before (usually it's a permissions issue) - and without having anything to test... 🤷‍♂️ Perhaps that program uses similar display techniques like some games, and described under point 2) here: How to Mak...

Different ways possible - my preferred way, if you only want to send literal characters (requires AHK v1.1.27+): T ext mode: :T:npp::start notepad++ another one (more flexible): ::npp::start notepad{+}{+} (compare the key names for send , which also apply here: https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/comman...

You seem to already know about try and catch.

Sounds like a typical permissions issue, tbh. Follow mikeyww's link.

But if it's game, then fullscreen mode could actually be a (different) problem. Is it a game?

Since you are using the COM interface of the Internet Explorer, the general documentation is rather available at Microsoft: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/internet-explorer/ie-developer/platform-apis/aa752084(v=vs.85) Of course, there are countless examples about using IE...

Well, many people use dynamic IPs... I get a new one assigned from my internet provider at least once a day - without me doing anything. I think there are a few topics about checking hardware IDs, though, and similar techniques, like checking user credentials on a webserver. But there is nothing rea...

Run the script as admin.

Well, AHK v1 is not really famous for exuberant consistency. :D It even seems that a comma after #include is necessary in this special case: assume you have an include-file called , test.ahk - the filename starting with a literal comma then you need an additional comma to make it work: #include, , t...

The docs don't list a comma for its syntax (but afaik it gets ignored, when used). Since commas for statements are often optional, and only necessary in certain cases with multiple parameters (if optional parameter in the front get left out), #include is probably exempt from using a comma as it alwa...

Yes it's a node.js thing. Not the most memory efficient but it's a lot faster than Chrome.ahk (which is quite fascinating as well). I think the Google team is doing some black magic since it's their browser. Yeah, Chrome.ahk has probably a few speed bottlenecks in terms of its websocket and json in...

You referenced a AHK v1 script, but posted in the AHK v2 alpha section. Was that intended? Which AHK version are you using/planning to use? It would matter for the syntax of the extension you want. If not intended, we can move the topic to the regular 'Ask For Help' (v1) forum (or to the Gaming subf...

Try Web_Browser.document.getElementById("LoginSubmit").click() Btw, this dark blue font color you use can be hard to read for forum users with dark forum themes. I would recommend to mostly keep the standard font colors provided by the forum - they should adjust automatically in the different forum ...

You are correct in the cause of my problem gregster. Thanks for that !!! :clap: I had other tabs open as an interface to the our network files and was using the script on an additional tab. Once I closed one of the other tabs, the error stopped. Is there a reason for the websocket limit of 6 ? If I...
