Computer trick - How to make error pop up windows

Hello. In this guide I am going to show you how to create a message box in Windows.

Create a file with this text in Notepad, and save it with .VBS extension, after which it can be opened:

example=msgbox ("Text goes here" ,0, "Title goes here")

Numbers

[edit]
  • 0: OK Button
  • 1: OK and cancel button
  • 2: Button, Try again and Ignore button
  • 3: Yes, No and cancel button
  • 4: Yes and No button
  • 5: Try again and cancel button
  • 16: X icon
  • 32: ? icon
  • 48: ! icon
  • 64: i icon

The numbers are a bit mask which can be added up using a plus sign ("+").
