I had to move Ultramon suite from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and it stopped to work. Any script (Maximize2Mon or FirefoxDesktopMaximized) instead of starting after using dedicated hotkeys opens a Notepad with text of vbs file.
How should I configure it in that environment? Best regards

You'll get this if the default action for .vbs files is edit instead of open on your system. There are two solutions:
- run regedit.exe, then go to the key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VBSFile\Shell and change the (Default) value from Edit to Open
- edit your hotkeys and change the 'application or script' field to the following: wscript.exe "<script>" for example: wscript.exe "D:\Temp\test.vbs"

thanks, but it is odd now. It dont show an editable text in notepad, when I associated 'wscript "scriptpath"' but instead of simple performing an action it focus only on a fioder, when the vbs file resists.
The default option was opening instead of editing.

Not sure what might cause this, do you have any security software installed which might interfere with this (antivirus, firewall, etc)?
For me the behavior on Windows 8.1 is the same as on Windows 7, .vbs files get executed (opened) by default.
