Hi @duzers,

It's complicated to give you a precise answer if you dont give more details about what you are trying to do, for example why do you have to use separate scripts to do such a thing instead of a single one.

You can simply store the "messages" from the "other scripts" in text files or registry values with functions like FileWrite or RegWrite then use Fileread / Regread to get these informations from the script which will "run the queue".

Thanks again for your help Water!

When you search the forum for IPC (Inter Process Communication) you will find a lot of solutions. One of them is MailSlot which seems to be quite simple.

      Reading a file .db
      By Adams
      With Autoit 3.3.12.0 a script like the one attached was reading the file "sync_config.db" of google drive, located at %LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Drive returning into var $sCloudFolder the value "C:\Users\Adams\Google Drive".
      Now, with Autoit 3.3.14.1, the same script, reading the same file, return into var a long string of characters.
      I made a text version of the file using copy and paste to observe the correct behavior.
      I think that the cause is the new method of decoding, but I could not figure out how to solve.
      #include-once #include <FileConstants.au3> #include <Constants.au3> ; if the Google Drive configuration file exists, it is read If FileExists("sync_config.db") Then ; open the Google Drive configuration file in reading $Handle_GoogleDrive_R = FileOpen("sync_config.db", $FO_READ) If $Handle_GoogleDrive_R = -1 Then ; Check if file opened for reading OK MsgBox(0, "Error", "An error occurred when reading the file " & "sync_config.db") Exit EndIf ; reading Google Drive configuration file $File_GoogleDrive = FileRead($Handle_GoogleDrive_R) ConsoleWrite("$File_GoogleDrive = " & $File_GoogleDrive & @CR) ; find folder path initial position $Start = 1 $Find = "local_sync_root_pathvalue\\?\" $Result = StringInStr($File_GoogleDrive, $Find, 0, 1, $Start) ; find folder path final position $Start = $Result + 29 $Find = "" $Result = StringInStr($File_GoogleDrive, $Find, 0, 1, $Start) $Len = $Result - $Start ; folder for Google Drive Service $sCloudFolder = StringMid($File_GoogleDrive, $Start, $Len) ConsoleWrite("$sCloudFolder = " & $sCloudFolder & @CR) ; close Google Drive configuration file FileClose($Handle_GoogleDrive_R) EndIf
