Edge browser save as to desktop

[serena_knight]

i want to make a script that will do a save as  of a website to the desktop

how do you code that

[SkysLastChance]

Looking at some of your other post I would suggest putting some time into Webdriver.

If using webdriver I would look into. 

_WD_GetSource()

Here is an example with IE. 

#include <IE.au3>

Local $oIE = _IECreate("google.com", 1, 1)
While _IEPropertyGet($oIE, "busy")
    Sleep(100)
WEnd
FileWrite(@DesktopDir & '\Results.html', _IEDocReadHTML($oIE))
_IEQuit($oIE)

i can not user the IE functions because they dont work with edge and 

Ie is no longer available on our network

also i am not allowed to download software on my work computer

Send("^s")  maybe  ?

So if not allowed to install software why ask in autoit forum.

You probably have to find solution with vba or powershell.

installing software has nothing to do with my problem

i can issue a send("^s") but then i have to click on desktop on the 

popup and then click save to save it to the desktop

i had hoped to find a way to do this with a script

i.e. not show the popup and have to click on desktop and then the save button

anyway i have found a better method to do what i wanted to do

ty all for your time

btw there appears to be a way to save a edge website to excel

just haven't figured it out yet
