I'm making new window this way:

var WSHShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell");
WSHShell.Popup("This is popup.");

But window appears under another ones. How can I move it to the front?

Perhaps this would help:

WScript.Shell.Popup has an undocumented value for the nType parameter which causes the resulting dialogs/popups to “stay on top” / in foreground, meaning that they cannot be hidden by other windows or dialogs: 4096.

WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Popup("Message", 0, "Title", 4096);

Using 4096 works for popups to "stay on top"

I'm trying to create Popups in Ruby and Watir Webdriver.

I installed win32ole-pp rubygem

I used this in my Code and it works:

require 'win32ole'

WshShell = WIN32OLE.new("WScript.Shell").Popup("Message", 5, "Title", 4096);
