Hello, How to use results of find and win\_find, i am registering the output of this to some variable, but should i trigger a task based on this var | changed? or some other condition? ---

this is seriously annoying, i keep getting different errors every time {“failed”: true, “msg”: “‘list object’ has no attribute ‘files’”} How do we pick the right attribute from win\_find ---

It would be best to show the tasks you have that are failing, otherwise we are just guessing Also using the debug module on your registered variable can help you determine the structure. ---
