Method to check if file changed?

[KilliK]

Hello.

I have created some registry tweaks in Windows 10 for the Chrome browser. Unfortunately, whenever the browser updates those registry tweaks get lost and I need to re-add them. I was thinking of having AHK to automatically re-apply them after Chrome updates.

My question is if there is some method which will keep checking all the time if Chrome's chrome.exe file has changed. I need it to be as less cpu intensive as possible (avoid file check repetition with settimer, etc).

any ideas?

Chrome won't update until it's restarted, so the most straight forward approach is to set up a "batch" styled script to launch the browser, followed by the (re-)application of the reg. edits from the same script a few seconds later.
