IniRead gives always default results from 'x.ini' at working dir or in @ScriptDir&'\x.ini' whem @workingdir or @scriptdir are folders in a mapped drive. But @error is 0

Accidentally, I needed to move the folder \DEV from local disk B: to N:\AutoIt in another disk (a shared folder).. Then I dropped disk B:, mapped B: to N;\AutoIt and tried to continue using the programs.

But a lot of my programas in the folder DEV gave bad results - both from Scite and .exe, when accesed from DEV in mapped drive B:. Those use IniRead. IniRead see an existing .ini file, but process it as if the .ini file were an empty file (the same for IniReadSection). Nevertheless the results are as good as expected when programs are accesed form DEV in N:\AutoIt (N: is a local drive).

It happens as if InitRead cannot read the .ini file when .ini drive is mapped. But IniRead don't see this as an error and don't @errot to 1.

ConsoleWrite('========== CONTENTS ===========' &@CRLF&FileRead($inifile)&@CRLF&'================================'&@CRLF)
;get editor command from Script.ini (default Notepad) at @Scriptdir, then at @WorkingDir
For $x=1 to 2

Exit

I use AutoIt a lot. Thank you for this marvellous work !!'''

Sample: $Aktiivne_Suund = ControlGetText($MAINWIN,"Piiriületus", $PIS_Suund) does NOT work ("u" umlaut is the guilty party) $Aktiivne_Suund = ControlGetText($MAINWIN,"", $PIS_Suund) works but if same program has more than one GUI window, you are getting screwed since script has no ability left to make difference between them.

There is no way to avoid umlauts since foreign language programs often have window titles containing those and when stumbling on one such program, it's annoying as hell.
