Hello.

The script works perfectly before it is compiled. But here is the message I'm getting after I compile it, and run the EXE.
Also, that line of text isn't in the original script.



Does anyone know what this means or how to fix?

did u compile it with the ahk_h compiler?

Ah, that makes sense. I believe it's the normal AHK compiler.
When I tried the AHK H Compiler, I got this message:

the compiler is ahk2exe.ahk

Make sure you copy the AutoHotkey.exe from the ahk_h package into Compiler folder and rename it to Ahk2Exe.exe, then double click it.
Note! If you want to compile ANSI (Win32a) you will need the AutoHotkey.exe from the same folder, otherwise from Win32w or x64w!

Thanks, both of your help and time. Have a great day!!!!

Hello @HotKeyIt! I'm having an issue when I'm compiling my script with V2. Here is a screenshot:
How can I go about fixing this?

Can you check MsgBox Type(v)?
Do you have an example script that you are trying to compile?

I was using another script that wasn't ahk v2 compatible. I really wanted to switch over to V2(I just ended coding naturally with that syntax) but this script is so necessary for what I'm trying to do. Is there any way to run ahk v1 scripts with v2 via emulation?@HotKeyIt

No.
So are you running v1? In that case check content of v?
Do you have a wrong compiler version, line 227 does not contain what you show: https://github.com/HotKeyIt/ahkdll-v1-release/blob/master/Compiler/Directives.ahk#L227

No, I tried using ahk_h v2 but received that error, it was due to another ahk script(written for v1) that was required for my script to function(v2). I switched back to ahk_h v1 now. No more errors. Thanks for your help @HotKeyIt!

Hi HotKeyit,
I'm also having error with Ahk2Exe_H. I wanted to compile with it. I'm new to the scripting world. I'm using AutoHotkey V1.1.33.02 and at first i downloaded the Ahk_H V2 realease thinking that it is the latest version to use. After getting errors then after researches, i found that i needed the ahk_H V1. After that done, i've installed it how you explain it here but i'm getting this error in the picturre. The AutoHotkeySC.bin is already in the compiler folder, i also copie it from x64w folder to the compiler folder, also to AutoHotkey folder but still it is not working. Can you help me, this's making me crazy since 2/3 days?

Make sure you have the very latest version, there is no need to copy AutoHotkey.exe to compiler folder anymore, just run Ahk2Exe.exe.
Then make sure you select the desired AutoHotkeySC.bin from the dropdown!

Thanks for your reply.
The version AutoHotkey V1.1.33.02 is the latest. I have redownloaded and reinstalled it then recopie "ahkdll-v1-release-master" contents to the AutoHotkey folder, then run Ahk2Exe and got the same message with the default "AutoHotkeySC.bin "selected while trying to compile, then I choose v1.1.33.2 AutoHotkeySC.bin (..\x64w) and got this message in the picture. I also have restart the computer then retry and have the same result. I really don't know whats wrong?

Can you add #MaxMem 4095 in Compiler.ahk (line 148) and let me know if it works?

Yes. I add it to the line 148 then i create a line above line 148 and paste it there and still got error.

Does it happen too when you compile a simple script?

Yes It was a simple script test that i was using but YAY!!!
It seems to be working fine after i run it as administrator!! Will report if i got another issue but i think all will be fine. Thanks you so much for your support and great creation!

Hello @HotKeyIt , I followed your guide however I got an error after double clicked Ahk2Exe.exe (which is shown in the attached pics). I am not sure if there is problem with my win10 20H2...
If I double click Ahk2Exe.ahk, the compiler would run successfully but will get an error later :"Error adding script file" if I checked "Use compression..." feature.
The only way now for me to successfully compile a script is not to check "Use compression...". Thusly, i can never try the password encryption feature.
Is there any way I can do to deal with this situation?
Many thanks for help in advance!

Which version are you using, did you try to compile/run from fresh download in a separate folder?
