Script doesn't run Topic is solved

[yabab33299]

Hi, this script only runs the hotkey but it stops there. How do I make it continue ?

Code: Select all

#SingleInstance Force

LControl & LShift::run cmd.exe 

Run, notepad.exe

Insert v2 advice for a v1 script...

That's v1 code.

After the script has been loaded, it begins executing at the top line, continuing until a Return, Exit, the script's first hotkey/hotstring label, or the physical end of the script is encountered

Hi, Yes this script is from v1. The hotkey is only just "LControl & LShift::run cmd.exe". Then it'll open notepad.exe, but te latter part is not running.

[flyingDman]

It will never be executed because the execution stops just after the hotkey (read what I quoted).

I tried putting Return or Exit after the hotkey but it still don't work. Is there a way around this ?

Thread moved from v2 section.

@yabab33299 — Note that the main section of the forum has been changed to be v2-oriented as that is now the latest official release, and there is a separate section of the forum dedicated to v1. Please post accordingly.

It doesn’t matter what you put after the hotkey. The part you want to automatically execute when the script is run needs to go before all hotkeys. See Structure of a Script.
