Hi Wayne,
I forgot to add the code relevant to the file name:

All functioned correctly until the day before yesterday when due to an unknown reason the system returned the message "Could not connect the device" and stopped the script. I found out the proble...

To do so: - open the image you need - click once on the stars icon - click twice on the stars you need - save the file *.sta you have c...

Fabio, it doesn't work for me, W10 professional and Edge.
I think that it could depend on the link that uses http instead of https. I checked changing http:// with https:// and works correctly.
