Aut2Exe Line 4 Error (i think that i solved it) #163

Closed SackNetz closed 2 years ago

SackNetz commented 2 years ago

After installing latest version (0.7.0.1 for that time), I tested with "microsoft-edge:https://google.com" in Run and it doesn't work. And then Edge is trying to start up (but since i deleted, it won't work anymore). Even after uninstalling and properly reinstalling with "AutoIt", it won't work either. if try to compile code there, "AutoIt" shows "Line 4" error. I tried to "run as administartor" but I got the same results (even with source code).

In regards to it not working

I see you deleted Edge, was that with AveYo's script or another method? If you used a method other than AveYo's, it likely didn't leave behind required registry keys and whitelisted files for MSEdgeRedirect or AveYo's ChrEdgeFckOff.bat to work.

In regards to compiling issues

An Aut2Exe error would be if you're compiling yourself from source. Make sure you have the Full Version of AutoIt installed if doing so. If the error persists, try with the SciTe4AutoIt.

No, it wasn't. Before I installed MSEdgeRedirect i tried to reinstall Edge Deflector but since Microsoft backdoored process with "update" (KB5007262). I used it and it worked fine (before Microsoft forced me to upgrade to Windows 11). About AutoIt, yes, I installed full version of it but I think that I a little bit (dummy-dum-dummed) becuase instead of running a script, I tried to compile it again.

Update 1: after reinstallation of edge, it's now working.
