AutoHotkey WinHide TC64, can't open by double click TOTALCMD64.EXE

[hyaray]

I hide TC64 by AutoHotkey：

Code: Select all

WinHide ahk_class TTOTAL_CMD

and then double click TOTALCMD64.EXE can't open TC,
but double click TOTALCMD.exe worked.
So I can't open tc in everything with command

Code: Select all

$exec("D:\AA\TC\TOTALCMD64.EXE" /A /S /L "%1")

Is this a bug?? Thanks!!

hyaray,

and then double click TOTALCMD64.EXE can't open TC

TC64 is already open but hidden. You cannot open it again. Or you can, if you allow more than 1 copy of TC at a time, but that does not unhide the existing one, it starts a new one.

but double click TOTALCMD.exe worked

That starts a new TC32 and leaves the running TC64 hidden.

I don't understand why you must hide TC.
But in this case you can write a small Autohotkey program which unhides and opens TC with the required parameters.
This program can you place into the Everything config.

hide TC64, and then double click TOTALCMD.exe,
TC64 actived, not starts a new TC32!! This is what I want, if TOTALCMD64.exe can also done this

Hide TC is my habit, haha
Use AutoHotkey and this will not be a problem.
I want fix this if it's a little bug
otherwise command in everything I has to run a ahk script to make it work well.

There is no bug.
Your AHK script called WinHide. If you want to see the existing TC64 window again, you will have to call WinShow.

As said by elgonzo, this is not a TC bug nor an AHK bug.
This is more a misunderstanding from your side.

I have in another scripting language a show or run script that show the pgm if it was hidden or launch the program. You should probably do the same in AHK, looking for windows that mach class TTOTAL_CMD and show it if it exists or launch totalcmd64.exe.

A dirty but easy way could be to always launch it changing focus to file and then show it.

Code: Select all

$exec("D:\AA\TC\TOTALCMD64.EXE" /A /S /L "%1")
WinShow ahk_class TTOTAL_CMD

Same class for 32/64 bit so looking for class is not the best !
