4.63 causing console windows to open
|
|
I use the below lines to create a printer dialog from scripts. When I use wkix32.exe 4.63 a console window opens up. If I switch back to 4.62, it works fine with no console window. Any idea what could be causing this change of behavior?
$printdoc = @ScriptDir+"\test.htm"
Shell 'RUNDLL32.exe MSHTML.dll,PrintHTML "'+$printdoc+'"'

Im still mostly using 4.5x, so 4.63 issues don't really bother me

I just tried and a command windows pops up indeed in 4.63 while it doesn't in 4.62. That s#cks a bit.
I'm still on 4.62. Just waiting what comes up with 4.63. Like the incorrect detection of Win2K8 R2. Hmmmm....I might stick to 4.62 for a while.

It's odd. I have yet to be able to reproduce it with a different shell command.
IGNORE THAT. Forgot I had changed back to 4.62 when I was testing. 4.63 actually seems to be creating a console window for ANYTHING shelled. Even a simple...

However, a workaround is to use the /i switch which seems to supress the window regardless.

Pretty sure that is normal. Try WKIX.EXE if you don't want a console

ntdoc, that is the point. wkix32 4.63 creates a console. so it isn't normal.
