Hmmm, thinking about this, wouldn't it even be better not to clear the edit, but use the difference in size ($fs_new - $fs) to performa a FileSetPos() operation instead to move the read pointer to the new content and then do a FileReadLine() loop for new lines only? But I'm not quite sure if FileReadLine() works correctly in conjunction with FileSetPos() :mellow:.

Edit: The FileOpen() handle prevented me to write to the log via notepad... I'm not quite sure if this wouldn't be true for other programs too, thus I think it's better to close the handle once the data has been received. Of course this works only if new data is only appended to the log.

...

Thanks for your effort KaFu but it is not working properly! :P

:mellow:, maybe it's related to the file being locked from time to time? Although I repositioned the FileGetSize() call, give this a try.

Hmmm, to be honest I can't really see where the problem might be ;) ...

Download the Service Management UDF by Xenobiologist.

Compile and start our code from above.

Use this code to turn of the Windows Update Service and see if an Update to the Log then happens.

#include<Service Management.au3>

While _ServiceRunning("", "wuauserv")
    Switch MsgBox(4 + 64 + 262144, "Error", "The Windows Update service is running. Do you want to try and stop it manually?")
        Case 6
            _StopService("", "wuauserv")
        Case Else
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

MsgBox(64+262144,"","wuauserv Service is stopped.")

While not _ServiceRunning("", "wuauserv")
    Switch MsgBox(4 + 64 + 262144, "Error", "The Windows Update service is not running. Do you want to try and start it manually?")
        Case 6
            _StartService("", "wuauserv")
        Case Else
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

MsgBox(64+262144,"","wuauserv Service is started.")

If that works, the service needs to be disabled / enabled periodically to flush the WindowsUpdate.log... just a guess :blink:

I'm sure this is inconsequential but I recently tried to make an autoit script for monitoring a log file created by a program and found this thread extremely helpful (I had most of it down but I was having trouble with getting the editbox to accept the entire log file and this helped in that regard with the "GUICtrlSetLimit(-1, 0x7FFFFFFF)" function). I found that using the "@extended" macro helped in making sure I always had the correct position within the file I was monitoring. I have added/changed the script to work with the intended effect. I thought I would post here in case anyone else found themselves in need of monitoring a log file.
