If you 'End Process"" outlook.exe in Task Manager - Processes then when running the ""ProcessWaitClose' script it pauses execution whilst Outlook.exe has been launched by _INetMail. To remedy this perhaps registry should be read HKCR\mailto\shell\open\command\""default value"" to determine the name of the default executable [outlook.exe or msmn.exe] Email client and close any running processes. My guess is that the Windows mail client continues to run to manage desktop delivery processing" Bug closed AutoIt 3.2.12.0 None No Bug Pause Script Execution
