I found an encrypted AHK exe that contains this:
and I see it in a lot of encrypted files, is there a specific way/tool that these are encrypted by? And is there a way to decrypt it?
The problem about what you are doing, is you are not talking about decrypting/decompiling your own personal files, but appear to be looking to decrypt/decompile the scripts of other people. Attempting to reverse engineer somebody else's program can be illegal,
particularly if their program is under copyright or they have a license that forbids such.
Asking other programmers to help you reverse engineer/crack/decompile somebody else's programs is also clearly problematic and could be dragging them into possibly illegal activity as well. That's not the purpose of the help forum. The exception to this would likely be if you are dealing with malware and need help. But depending on the situation, dedicated professionals at an Anti-Virus company might be more helpful.
With that stated, if you want to learn about encryption/decryption, decompiling, or compression is something else. There have been various topics about it and scripts made in which you can study up on. You can do a search of the forums or a Google search, and a lot of information should pop up. You can then rephrase your question or start a new topic about what you need help on.
Some forum posts to get you started:

Lastly, there are obviously 3rd party protection or compression software that are not created with AutoHotkey. In addition, some scripts can't be easily decompiled for various reasons, depending on how or what program they were compiled with. It's good to keep this in mind, because it can affect how much people on the AutoHotkey forum can help you.
