    Hi Natalya, you appear to have missed an escaping "\", between MyFolder and config123 i.e.



    ini = Storages.INI("C:\\MyFolder\config123.ini"); should be

    ini = Storages.INI("C:\\MyFolder\\config123.ini");



    Also, as you have the ini file in the Files Store, I would recommend using the Files::FileNameByName()  method to pass in the path to Storages::INI() method to avoid these issues in future, e.g.



    ini = Storages.INI( Files.FileNameByName( "AMITestConfiguration_INI" ) );



    where "AMITestConfiguration_INI" is the name in Files of the ini file you wish to process



    Regards,

Phil, thank you for your quick response! You are absolutely right, "\" is missing.

Thank you for your recommendation too, I really appreciate it!

    it seems like Storages.INI will not work if ini file does not have [Root] section

      You are correct.  Storages.INI requires the INI file to have a particular format, namely that there is a [Root] section.
