Interesting things with time.

He everyone. I have note that when i activate a timer( it happens every 5 sec) the main script is slow down. I run a counter in main part and it works longer than 20 sec then it was. Is it normal? Is it works in two threads or the main script paused?

expandcollapse popup

;~ Setting timer
$TimerHandle = _Timer_SetTimer($formMain, 5000, "_MsgTimerEvent")

...

;~ Here is my main cycle. $a - is an amount of seconds and it works more longer then it should be.
For $a = Round(GUICtrlRead($InputTimeCircle), -1) To 0 Step -1
        WinSetTitle("Debug", "", "Debug - " & $a)
        Sleep(1000)
    Next
    WinSetTitle("Debug", "", "Debug")

...

Func _MsgTimerEvent($hWnd, $Msg, $iIDTimer, $dwTime)
    
    _Timer_KillTimer($formMain, $TimerHandle)

    $result = SearchImage()
    Switch $result
        Case 1
            DebugInfo("Message!")
            Send("{ENTER}")
        Case 2
            DebugInfo("Connection Lost")
            Send("{ENTER}")
            Restart()
        Case 3
            DebugInfo("Login or password are incorrect")
            Send("{ENTER}")
            Restart()
        Case Else
    EndSwitch
    
    $TimerHandle = _Timer_SetTimer($formMain, 5000, "_MsgTimerEvent")
    
EndFunc ;==>_MsgTimerEvent

It won't be possible to help you without a short script THAT CAN BE RUN, and that SHOWS YOUR ISSUE. The code you provided meets neither requirement.
