How can I set the script to close all windows before doing the backup?
thanks

Have a try,

CapsOff

//Use Taskmanager to activate existing windows
Press ALT
Press TAB
Release ALT
WaitWindowOpen>*

Label>Next
GetActiveWindow>window,x,y
//Program Manager=The name of a window commonly known as --> Desktop
If>window=Program Manager,Backup
CloseWindow>%window%
Wait>1
Goto>Next

Label>Backup

I have the dell keyboard, and the Alt key would not activate the menu..
I have to modify the key. But I got your tips

thanks

Hi Lumumba...

Nice routine to handle that.

But shouldn't the Label>Next be at the top of the first section, before press the ALT-TAB combination? Change shown below:

//Use Taskmanager to activate existing windows
Label>Next
Press ALT
Press TAB
Release ALT
WaitWindowOpen>*

GetActiveWindow>window,x,y
//Program Manager=The name of a window commonly known as Desktop
If>window=Program Manager,Backup
CloseWindow>%window%
Wait>1
Goto>Next

Label>Backup
