[QUOTE="xppx, post: 346031, member: 55884"] Hi dentoto, It is exactly like jimwin says, you need to change the name of the path to PowerDVD in the HD Starter.exe. I suggest you do it like this : [CODE] [COLOR="Green"]; Read from the registry the proper install directory for PowerDVD ; Registry keys are Vista based[/COLOR] [COLOR="darkred"]RegRead, PowerDVDAppPath, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Cyberlink\PowerDVD8, InstallPath[/COLOR] if ErrorLevel [COLOR="green"]; there was a problem reading the key[/COLOR] { MsgBox, 16, PowerDVD8Ctrl, The install path of Cyberlink PowerDVD8 could not be found. ExitApp } [/CODE] And then use [COLOR="DarkRed"]%PowerDVDAppPath%[/COLOR] to replace the hardcoded path in the script. This way it doesn't matter where you have installed it, the script will find it via the registry. Don't forget to download AutoHotkey as well, as you need this small app to compile the script (AHK) into an executable (EXE). Cheers. [/QUOTE]
