Hello,
I am creating an installation package for a winzip addon.
during the installation a windows file explorer window pops up. i want to close this window automatically from within a vbscript file. i know i could send key strokes to do this but i dont like that idea. does anyone know how to access the "activewindow" and close it? if it was a distinct process i could close that using WMI stuff but it hangs off explorer.exe...any ideas?

Regards,
Rich
