The specific file was not found.

That's the message I get whenever I try to record a sequence of keystrokes with the Keyboard Wizard.
It works just fine until I press Stop Recording. Then, a dialog box jumps out with the message.
Does anyone know how to help me?
Thanks in advance.

I wonder if it has anything to do with where your script file is stored? Is the folder read only or something like that?

It's actually in the desktop folder.
I'm guessing it has something to do with the target window, it changes its name dynamically according to the screen resolution of the window, so I'll try to capture it from another one to see if it persists.
Thanks.

Is there not something specific about the window title? If so use the substring wildcard. See SetFocus in the help file. Works with all window functions.
