What about sqlite database? You can have table names with prefixes or sufixes, ie. Calcultor_perApp, Class1_perClass, OtherClass_perClass. You can embed needed dll into script and load it from memory without writing to disk anything if the licence permits it.

Here are my results on Win 10.

Then most probably solution from @Dan_555 will work for you.
 

If you look in the help file for RegWrite there are following lines:
Return Value
Success:    1.
Failure:    0 and sets the @error flag to non-zero if error writing registry key or value.
@error:    1 = unable to open requested key
 2 = unable to open requested main key
 3 = unable to remote connect to the registry
-1 = unable to open requested value
-2 = value type not supported.
So if @error=1 then if for any reason RegWrite files to open key you will get that first splash message 
"NOTICE!!", "The Reg String " & $sString & " was not succesfully updated!" If you want that message to be shown for each error that is listed above then you should write: "If @error Then" which means "if @error is anything except 0 then".
When there is not an error, when everything goes well, then @error has value of 0. 

What about following
Global Const $HKM_GETHOTKEY = $WM_USER + 2 Global Const $HOTKEYF_SHIFT=0x01;https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/inputdev/wm-sethotkey .... func onChange() $key=SendMessage($hInput, $HKM_GETHOTKEY) ConsoleWrite("onChange: " & $key & @CRLF) $loword=_WinAPI_LoWord($key) $lobyte=_WinAPI_LoByte($loword) $hibyte=_WinAPI_HiByte($loword) ConsoleWrite("LOBYTE=" & $lobyte & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("HIBYTE=" & $hibyte & @CRLF) If ($lobyte<>0 And $hibyte=$HOTKEYF_SHIFT) Then ConsoleWrite("hotkey changed" & @CRLF) EndIf EndFunc HKM_GETHOTKEY has valuable information about how to get what keys are pressed. If you need further help feel free to ask.

Date-time control supports only spin button. Do you expect to show a clock when you would "click" time control? 

No, but if you want to interact with a slider from a gui that you have not made look for _GUICtrlSlider... functions.

Look for MouseCoordMode under AutoItSetOption.

There seems to be many way to achieve something like you're looking for, thanks to this nice and experienced community 👍 .
Nevertheless I want to show you @taurus905 a quick example of a custom title bar which I created out of GUI snippets that I used in other projects before.

💡 Please keep in mind, I usually would modularize the code into separate files (depending on the duties), but in this case I just did it in a single script file.

Please notice that you can minimize or close the GUI like you would expect it. Also the GUI is draggable by the title bar.

I think it does work if you use the updated version by @AutoBert. I have not done much testing but everything seems to be working.

Look for ByRef.

AutoIt3 Interpreter might be of interest.

Look at _guictrllistview_findtext and _guictrllistview_setitemselected

@kurtykurtyboy regarding event handlers have you checked GUIRegisterMsg20 - Subclassing Made Easy ?

Look for GdiPlusGraphicsDrawImage

I've found that anytime you need to use virtually any kind of pointer in a tag just using "ptr" works.  

Try with GUISwitch()

Have you tried with _WinAPI_ShellOpenFolderAndSelectItems?

ahmet already fully answered your question, giving you link to required GUI control:
 
Note: Andreik's UDF code is AutoIt wrapper over standard Windows control msctls_hotkey32

Can this help
$sTestString="my_business_032020" $btest=StringRegExp($sTestString,".*\d\d.*\d\d\d\d") MsgBox(0,"Test",($btest ? "There is" : "There is not") & " date") You can look at regex101.com for explanation

That worked perfect, thanks for your help!

You are welcome

If you catch the event when user presses one of those buttons use GUISetState(@SW_MINIMIZE) to minimize.

SetBitMap($TransparentButtonTest, $hImageButton, 192) will set the dragable image semi transparent.
