Greetings, I need help with the implementation of the possibility through the IniRead, IniWrite tags. I would like to make it possible for users to enter the message they need through IniWrite, and then a message from setting.ini is displayed in one of the text lines

Hallo,
perhaps?:

Code: Select all

IniRead, InputAtag, settings.ini, settings, admintag

:*?B0:/admtag::
SendInput, {space}
Input, InputAtag, V, {enter}
IniWrite, %InputAtag%, settings.ini, settings, admintag
msgbox, %InputAtag%
return

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

:*?x:dm1::Send, /jail{Space} 60-120 DM |%InputAtag%{Left 23}

Thanks, but using your code I have to set the value through the /admtag command with each reboot of the script, is there any way to make sure that the value is preserved and I do not have to re-enter it?

For me, the script works exactly as desired.
Do you have the IniRead line in the automatic execution area?

I have everything in the code as you wrote above

But why doesn't it work that way.

Did it create the .ini file? What does it show?

It creates a .ini file, and iniread reads it, but after rebooting, you have to write the /admtag command again so that the function argument appears in the .ini file.

I don’t understand what you’re saying. You said it’s in the .ini file and the script reads it. What does rebooting have to do with anything? The .ini file is still there and it reads from it again after rebooting, right?

After rebooting the ahk file, the ini file seems to be deleted, I can't properly explain what I mean. The file seems to be deleted.

Well, that would be the problem then. That’s not an AHK issue. In what folder is your script and the .ini file located on your drive? It’s best to locate them in a folder where Windows intends as your space, like in Documents.

Now I'll try, and I'll write

Can you please tell me how to make it save to documents? Or it doesn't work.

Now the .ini file is saved to documents, but after reloading the script, it does not display the value written through the /admtag command

Both files -- the script and the .ini file -- need to be in the same directory unless you specify the path to the .ini file in your script.

The path to the file is specified

Show your script and the contents of the .ini file.

contents of the .ini file
but for some reason, if you run the script when there is a value in the .ini file, it is simply not written until you write the /admtag command again

No, you did not. See if you can spot the difference. It wastes the time of those helping when you say the script is the same but you made changes that you think are not important but make all the difference.
