Hi,
I am writing a script that closes error popups on windows. 

The error popups always appear as [CLASS:#32770] and thus I wrote this:

 

#RequireAdmin

while 1
    _CloseErrorPopUps()
    sleep(100)
wend

Func _CloseErrorPopUps()
    if WinExists("[CLASS:#32770]") then
        local $title = WinGetTitle("[CLASS:#32770]")
        local $pid = WinGetProcess ( $title )
        ControlSend($title, "", "Button1", "{ESC}")  ;close the popup
        tooltip($pid & ' ' & $title)
    endif
endfunc

However, I soon realize that some other non-error processes use [CLASS:#32770]. a system service igfxem.exe for instance exists in one of my machine and contains this [class#32770] that could not be closed.

My question is:

1. Is there a way to use WinExists to filter only [CLASS:#32770] with Button1? If so how?

or

2. Must I use an exhaustive one-by-one approach of listing all the error popups instead?

if WinExists('[CLASS:#32770]', 'out of bound error') then
.
if WinExists('[CLASS:#32770]', 'Autoit Error') then
.
.
.
.
.

 

thanks.

what about the title of that error popup. Use Title instead of [CLASS:#32770], If there is no title.

do this when error pops up. open task manager Locate that error application, check it's properties, A name will be there like "whatever_error.EXE"

Now Write Something like this

#RequireAdmin
Func _CloseErrorPopUps()
    If ProcessExists("whatever_error.EXE") Then
        Sleep(200)
        ProcessClose("whatever_error.EXE")
        Sleep(200)
    EndIf
EndFunc

Also If you Want to Use WinExist

It Has A Text Part after title name, WinExists ( "title" [, "text"] )

Use text to Define Exactly what window you want to check if exist

The window text consists of all the text that AutoIt can "see". This will usually be things like the contents of edit controls (as above with "This is some text!") but will also include other text like:

  • Button text like &Yes, &No, &Next (the & indicates an underlined letter)
  • Dialog text like "Are you sure you wish to continue?"
  • Control text
  • Misc text - sometimes you don't know what it is :)

Study this small script:

; Open a browser with the basic example page, insert an
; event script into the head of the document that creates
; a JavaScript alert when someone clicks on the document

#include <IE.au3>

Local $oIE = _IE_Example("basic")
_IEHeadInsertEventScript($oIE, "document", "onclick", "alert('Someone clicked the document!');")
AdlibRegister('CloseAlert', 1000)
$tdStart = TimerInit()
While TimerDiff($tdStart) < 60000
    Sleep(1000)
WEnd
_IEQuit($oIE)

Func CloseAlert                                             ()
    Sleep(3000)
    ControlClick('[CLASS:#32770]', 'Someone clicked the document!', 2)
EndFunc   ;==>CloseAlert

after example is shown ckick into brower document. 3 sec's later the shown alert is closed.

You might check both if class is #32770  and if the word "error" exists in the title, or the text of the button in the text, or all together  :)

WinExists("[CLASS:#32770; REGEXPTITLE:(?i)(.*error.*)]", "OK")

 

Thanks a lot @mikell

This single line code saved me. After hours of failed attempts, at last, i can click on message box button. I didn't knew that we can use reg exp title inside a string this.
