You know, I was thinking the same thing. Compiled scripts (.EXE) can run independently from AH engine i.e. AH installation is not required to run them. I tested it on machine without AH installed and it runs normally.

Dennis, check in your Control Panel --> Programs and Features does AH actually appears on the list of installations.



Also, check by right clicking on any script file (.AHK) do you have this 3 options appearing on contextual menu after right click.



Unfortunately, I don’t have any machine in hand with Win 8.0 or Win 8.1 installed and this screenshots are from Win 7, they can somehow slightly differ from your screens.

Hello... I've checked the version of AHK.. its the same one you mentioned. The 'files' that I'm trying to run all have the... '.exe' extension, so they are 'compiled' as far as I know. I re-downloaded all of the PzC hotkey files... extracted them, so they are all 'new'. I click to execute the file (run it) and I still get the same error message. "This app can't run on your PC". I thank all of you for sticking with me on this... I am at a loss as to what it wrong.. but, I'm running W8.1 and it won't be the first time that something runs on someone else's system but not mine. Seems W8.1 has a nasty habit of 'customizing' itself for each system and uniformity be damned! There really shouldn't be anything that needs to be done to these files as far as I can tell. If they are compiled (.exe) then they should run. 'Red Star' does, but I am at a loss as to why the 'others' do not.

There has got to be something very basic that I am overlooking... eh? 76mm, sure I'll try most anything at this point to get them to work, thanks for the kind offer.
