To make it easier to maintain the UIA code, I've decided to split the code this way: This new thread is used for the actual UIA UDFs. Ie. the files stored in Includes folders and named UIA_*.au3 or UIAEH_*.au3. The UIASpy thread contains only code that is used directly in the UIASpy GUI, but not the UIA UDFs in this new thread. Using UIA Code contains only example code, but neither UIA UDFs nor UIASpy. UIA Events contains GUI code to detect events and it contains example code, but neither UIA UDFs nor UIASpy. This means that every time the code in the UDF files in this new thread is updated (eg. because of Windows 10 feature updates twice a year), you must install the files in the Includes folders in the other threads yourself. The easiest way is simply to copy all UDF files to the Includes folders. UDF Files CUIAutomation2.au3 - UIA constants for Windows 7 used in the first examples CUIAutomation2-a.au3 - The original UIA constants for Windows 7 from junkew's thread UIA_AccVars.au3 - Used to calculate properties of type VT_UNKNOWN, copied and modified from this thread UIA_Constants.au3 - UIA constants (copied from UIA header files) up to and including Windows 10 1809 UIA_ConstNames.au3 - Contains functions for converting UIA constants from values to names UIA_Functions.au3 - A collection of small utility functions UIA_Functions-a.au3 - First version of utility functions UIA_ObjectFromTag.au3 - Creates callback objects used in event handlers, copied and modified from this post by trancexx UIA_SafeArray.au3 - Constants and functions to handle safearrays, copied from this thread UIA_Variant.au3 - Constants and functions to handle variants, copied from this thread UIAEH_AutomationEventHandler.au3 - Implements the AutomationEventHandler UIAEH_FocusChangedEventHandler.au3 - Implements the FocusChangedEventHandler UIAEH_NotificationEventHandler.au3 - Implements the NotificationEventHandler, published in Windows 10 1709 UIAEH_PropertyChangedEventHandler.au3 - Implements the PropertyChangedEventHandler UIAEH_StructureChangedEventHandler.au3 - Implements the StructureChangedEventHandler Folders The UI Automation projects can be stored in a folder structure this way: UI Automation\ Code\ - Using UIA code Events\ - UIA events Spy tool\ - UIASpy.au3 UDFs\ - UDF files The UDF files must be installed in Includes\ in the first three folders. Threads UIASpy - UI Automation Spy Tool is a GUI tool that provides information about windows and controls and their interconnection and provides functionality to generate sample code. UIASpy is essential for creating UI Automation code. In Using UI Automation Code in AutoIt you can find and download examples and read information about using UIA code. UI Automation Events is about implementing event handlers and includes GUIs to detect events. IUIAutomation MS framework automate chrome, FF, IE, .... created by junkew August 2013 is the first AutoIt thread on UIA code. Zip-file The zip contains source code for the UDF files. You need AutoIt 3.3.12 or later. Tested on Windows XP, Windows 7 and Windows 10. Comments are welcome. Let me know if there are any issues. UIAIncludes.7z

Updates: Errors under AutoIt 3.3.14.5 because functions have been moved to other UDFs. Corrected. Added a few lines in ViewMessages.au3 to display messages from an OnEvent mode script. Grouping toolbar listview items by checked/unchecked state (August 15, 2018) has caused problems while counting messages. The functionality has been removed again. Updated WM_Messages.txt. If you compare Windows messages in Includes\Messages\ with e.g. all the Wine messages, the latter contains far more messages. However, many of these messages originate from Windows XP and earlier and are apparently no longer used. These old messages have not yet been added. I'm considering a bit whether to add or not. New 7z-file at bottom of first post.

You also need to check attributes of these files before deleting them, as stated in the Filedelete function help file: You can also use the del command from windows as an alternative: ;this function will delete everything inside a folder, without deleting the folder itself func deletefoldercontent ($path) RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'del /s /f /q "' & $path & "*.*" & '"', "", @SW_HIDE) ;delete all files in the directory and sub directories RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'del /s /f /q "' & $path & "*.*" & '" /A:H', "", @SW_HIDE) ;delete all hidden files in the directory and sub directories RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'for /f "delims=?" %f in (''dir /ad /b ' & '"' & $path & '"' & ''') do rd /s /q "' & $path & '%f"', "", @SW_HIDE) ;list all subfolders and delete them EndFunc deletefoldercontent(@UserProfileDir & "\Recent\)

@musicstashall These question belong in the "AutoIt General Help and Support" forum not in the example forum, and the questions you have doesn't belong to this topic. I also don't think you will find someone who will translated this for you and certainly not if you ask/commandeer it at this way "Someone, convert this code to Autoit" But anyway try it in the general support forum.
