Registering does not create a copy. Registering will make it so you can create a COM object (WIN32OLE.new), but the DLL will remain wherever it was when you registered it. Personally, I keep it in the same directory as my AHK installation. However, many DLL files are located in the Windows Directory. On a side note, the maintainer of the DLL has been updating it regularly recently. He provided a direct link for the Windows (32 bit) Unicode version: http://www.autohotkey.net/~HotKeyIt/AutoHotkey.dll -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
