Stop a Script

27 Jul 2021, 18:21

(I am basically brand new to this service) Hello, i accidentally ran a script that had my apostrophe key bond to f3 + b and I cannot find a way to get it to stop. I thought deleting the script file would work but that only made things worse becasue i cannot run an edited version of the script anymore.
Please help!!!

The code i used.

Code: Select all

(apostrophe key)::
SendInput {F3 down}{b down}{F3 up}{b up}
Return

It's still running from memory, that's normal. No need to panic.

Look in the systray for the script's icon, right-click it, choose 'Exit'.

Or, close all autohotkey processes in the Windows taskmanager (probably there is only one, if you only ran one script instance).

Or, reboot your computer.

Next time, you could add a hotkey like

Code: Select all

Esc::ExitApp
that would exit the script.

Thank you soooo much. My email to my boss looked so unprofessional without my apostrophe key.
