Executing Autohotkey command in Windows 8

Post by Susan G »

Hi-

I have a dual boot W7/W8 system (both 64-bit) and I've set up a Textpad tool to automatically run an .ahk (Autohotkey) file. It works fine in W7, but doesn't do anything in W8.

The command is: C:\Program Files\AutoHotkey\AutoHotkey.exe
Parameter is the file name (I've also tried $File)
Initial folder is $Filedir.

Can anyone spot what I'm doing wrong? Again, this works fine in Windows 7, and I've made sure that the correct path to the autohotkey,exe is in the command line.

TIA-

-Susan
