Scite won't run scripts

[Warsaw]

I downloaded the latest AutoIt release and Scite4AutoIt as well. Installed them and opened my scripts. When I press F5 (for Go), it gives me this error. 

"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel."

If I right click on the script file I can select "Edit Script" or "Run Script" and they both work fine, but trying to run it using Scite isn't working.

Any ideas what could be the problem?

For starters please post the complete output from the SciTE output pane when pressing F5.

This is what I do and everything works well:

1.  Download and Install AutoIT latest version from: https://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/downloads/

     >>>>>>>>>> Direct download link: https://www.autoitscript.com/cgi-bin/getfile.pl?autoit3/autoit-v3-setup.exe

2.  Download and Install AutoIt Script Editor (SciTE4AutoIt3) latest version  from: https://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit-script-editor/downloads/

     >>>>>>>>>> Direct download link: https://www.autoitscript.com/cgi-bin/getfile.pl?../autoit3/scite/download/SciTE4AutoIt3.exe

I wait for a version with editor autoit full but that will probably never be.
Please try reinstalling the order, I'm sure it will work  Maybe 
Good luck (:

I don't see any error there and seems to start you script fine.
How/When is that Error displayed exactly? 
Is it when your script runs?
Are you also doing the Right/Mouse/Click Run Script (x64) when testing as you seem to have defaulted to x64 in stead of x86?

OK, I found the issue. I started using ConsoleWrite to determine if the script actually started running and if so, when it was stopping. This led me to a section of code near the beginning that I have where it restarts itself with elevated rights if it doesn't have it already. It seems it was trying to do this on the AU3 script itself instead of only doing it when compiled. I made some changes and it's working now. 

Not sure if this error started happening because of the new version of AutoIt, Scite, or Windows since all three are different than before. 

Thanks for the help, and sorry for bothering you about it.
