@davidp
We will add a sleep script posted by Tom to the Library.

FastKeys attempts to open a webpage in default browser. You can also specify any valid path like:

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\Firefox.exe "www.google.com"

[quote You can also specify any valid path like:

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\Firefox.exe "www.google.com"
[/quote]

Even after trying your valid path to open the website -- it's working only sometimes.

Works perfectly well on all my computers.
You may try the following:
Type: Open

Code: Select all

http://www.google.com
Type: Run

Code: Select all

firefox.exe http://www.google.com
What happens if you run it via command prompt (Win+R)?

Code: Select all

firefox.exe http://www.google.com
If this doesn't work, check your UAC settings or run FastKeys as administrator.

I have tested several times if it's working,and it's working now but only if Fk is run as administrator.
Now the question is -- How should i start FK when windows starts with administrator rights.
