		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Created page with &amp;quot;&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt; WinWait ( &amp;lt;title&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;text&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;timeout&amp;gt; ) &amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;  === Description ===  Waits until the requested window exists.  === Parameters ===  ==== Title ====  The title of the window. ...&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Description ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Waits until the requested window exists.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Parameters ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Title ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The title of the window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Text ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Optional; The text of the window to read.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Timeout ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Optional; Timeout in seconds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Return Value ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
None.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Remarks ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The difference between this function and WinClose is that WinKill will forcibly terminate the window if it doesn't close quickly enough. Consequently, a user might not have time to respond to dialogs prompting the user to save data.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although WinKill can work on both minimized and hidden windows, some windows (notably Windows Explorer) can only be terminated using WinClose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
See &amp;quot;WinTitleMatchMode&amp;quot; in [[Core Function Opt|Opt]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Example ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;syntaxhighlight lang=&amp;quot;sputnik&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
// Wait for the window &amp;quot;Untitled&amp;quot; to exist&lt;br /&gt;
Run(&amp;quot;notepad&amp;quot;);&lt;br /&gt;
WinWait(&amp;quot;Untitled&amp;quot;);&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
// Wait a maximum of 5 seconds for &amp;quot;Untitled&amp;quot; to exist&lt;br /&gt;
WinWait(&amp;quot;Untitled&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;&amp;quot;, 5);&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/syntaxhighlight&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
