Wait For Ini File Action
The Wait For Ini File action allows you to wait until a section or entry in an Ini File matches a specific condition. For an overview of "Wait For..." events, including specifics of the Wait Options, see this topic.

Wait For
Section/key to exist
Use this option to wait for either a section or a key (under a section) to appear in the Ini file. If you specify a key name, you can also check whether or not they key needs to take a value. Otherwise, 'KeyName=' will be considered as an existing key.
Section/key to no longer exist
Use this option to wait until a section or key no longer exists. If you specify a key name, check the "Or key to have no value" box if you want a blank value (ie 'KeyName=') to be a sufficient condition for continuing.
You can choose to have the action fail if the file doesn't exist, otherwise a file not found error will be considered as passing (if the file doesn't exist, the section or key doesn't exist either!)
Section/keyto change
Use this option to wait until a section or a key changes.
If you specify a key, then the action will continue when the key is erased, created, or its value is changed.
If you only specify a section, the action will continue when a key is added or removed from the section, or when the value of any key in the section changes.
Key to match value
You need to specify a key name for this option.
The action will continue when the value for the key perfectly matches the specified value.
Key to contain value as substring
You need to specify a key name and a value to wait for.
The action will continue when the value for the key contains the substring you specify in the "Value" field.
