1) From idea on the shitter --> proof of concept   is rarely measured in anything other than minutes.
2) The helpfile is gd amazing (which often facilitates #1).
3) people who have to maintain your uncommented code in the future get the luxury of 1 and 2.
 

Debating hammer efficacy is a lot less fun than building shit.  Explain that they are supposed to use the tools not be the tools. 
These threads make me think of this meme, and i giggle every time.

have the user supply it beforehand, something like:
$sName = inputbox('put yer name here'.........
$CMD = 'New-psDrive ' & $sName
 

You edited it to be additionally patronizing and are recommending a solution that involves redims as an improvement to a snippet that has none?  That is super.
Dcoder, there are older examples, and i think the speed can be improved on yours.  And apparently you have upset Guinness, so that part is at least right.
.https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/120801-converting-array-1d-2d/

Your line looks for everything between "BOOK<colon><space>" and the next <space>"
Your example does not contain the string BOOK, but if it followed that pattern would be "BOOK<space><colon><space>"
You probably just want everything between your target and the carriage return
Local $aFileRead = _StringBetween($sFileRead, "BOOK: ", @CRLF)  

Hmm I also know that this assertion is not exactly true 
But I'm surprised you didn't suggest such a solution
$s = "Movie (0000) (part1000) (2002)" $r = StringSplit(StringMid($s, 1, StringInStr($s, "(", 0, -1)-1) & @crlf & StringMid($s, StringInStr($s, "(", 0, -1)+1, 4), @crlf, 3) _ArrayDisplay($r)

To just add a little '$' to the previous expression was not good enough ?
#Include <Array.au3> $s = "Movie (0000) (part1000) (2002)" $a = stringregexp($s , "([^\\]*?)\h*\((\d+)\)$" , 3) _ArrayDisplay($a)  
@ReconX
The best way is to translate the expression in common language , i.e. ([^\\]*?) means : "please capture 0 or more non-backslash characters (lazy way)" , or \((\d+)\) means : "please capture one or more digits enclosed with parenthesis"

have to think there is a regex solution to be had...something heading down the path of
#Include <Array.au3> Local $a[2][2] = [[0,1],[10,20]] $s = StringRegExpReplace(_ArrayToString($a) , "(\d+)" , "\1 + 5") local $aNew[0][2] _ArrayAdd($aNew , $s) _ArrayDisplay($aNew)  

While negative ints in keys don't hard crash in latest beta anymore, version 3.3.15.1 allowed that and worked:
Local $m[] $m[-5] = "aaa" _ArrayDisplay(MapKeys($m)) ConsoleWrite($m[-5] & @LF) >Running:(3.3.15.1):C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\autoit3.exe "C:\Users\jc\Documents\AutoMAT\tmp\t.au3" +>Setting Hotkeys...--> Press Ctrl+Alt+Break to Restart or Ctrl+BREAK to Stop. aaa +>04:24:08 AutoIt3.exe ended.rc:0 +>04:24:08 AutoIt3Wrapper Finished. >Exit code: 0 Time: 4.272

AutoIt v3.3.15.2 Beta
View File 3.3.15.2 (13th May, 2020) (Beta)
AutoIt:
- Fixed: Map elements being lost due to a deep-copy logic fail.
Submitter Jon Submitted 05/13/2020 Category Beta  

the helpfile also states
so:
local $aArray[6] = [1,2,3,2,5,2] $aDel = _ArrayFindAll($aArray , 2) _ArrayDelete($aArray , _ArrayToString($aDel , ";")) _ArrayDisplay($aArray) or reduced
local $aArray[6] = [1,2,3,2,5,2] _ArrayDelete($aArray , _ArrayToString(_ArrayFindAll($aArray , 2) , ";")) _ArrayDisplay($aArray)
 

In addition to all of the optimization suggestions, you have fundamental issues, the return from the run command is the PID not the STDOUT.   You can then use the PID to read the output of the command.  But WMI is already slow without asking powershell to ask WMI.
;#RequireAdmin #include <Constants.au3> #include <Array.au3> $pidPrintlist = Run("powershell.exe get-printer" , @SystemDir , @SW_HIDE, $STDOUT_CHILD) ProcessWaitClose($pidPrintlist) $out = StdoutRead($pidPrintlist) _ArrayDisplay(stringsplit($out , @CR , 2))  
yeah, pretty much what @Deye said at the same time he said it

For the fun only 
#include <Array.au3> ;Global $aArray[10] = ["a","a","b","c","c","d","e","c","e"] Global $aArray[7] = ['script', 'autoit', 'autoit', 'script', 'script', 'forum', 'autoit'] _ArraySort($aArray) $r = StringReplace(StringRegExpReplace(_ArrayToString($aArray), '^\||(\w+)\|(?:\1\|*)+', ""), "|", @crlf) msgbox(0,"", $r)  

Based off CheckEE creates a custom exe that fileinstalls only the payload assigned to the variable 'filename'.  Some of it unnecessary, Rube Goldberg style.  
;~ ;----------------------------------------------------- ;#Local Variables Local $Check_EE ;~ ;----------------------------------------------------- ;~ ;----------------------------------------------------- $Check_EE = "A" ;--- IF $Check_EE == "A" Then assign("filename" , "A.exe") ElseIF $Check_EE == "B" Then assign("filename" , "B.exe") ElseIF $Check_EE == "C" Then assign("filename" , "B.exe") EndIF ;--- $tgtfile = "testfileinstall_writeonfly_" & $Check_EE ; file name based off result of If FileWrite($tgtfile & ".au3" , 'FileInstall("' & @ScriptDir & '\' & eval("filename") & '", "' & @ScriptDir & '\test\' & eval("filename") & '")') ; Write the au3 that does the thing you want runwait("cmd /c " & FileGetShortName(@ProgramFilesDir) & "\AutoIt3\Aut2Exe\Aut2exe.exe /in " & @ScriptDir & "\" & $tgtfile & ".au3") ; compiles that au3 to an exe of the same name in the same dir ;~ run(@ScriptDir & "\" & $tgtfile & ".exe") ; runs that exe  

you can, but not like that
;----------------------------------------------------- ;#Local Variables Local $Check_EE ;----------------------------------------------------- ;----------------------------------------------------- $Check_EE = "A" ;--- IF $Check_EE == "A" Then assign("filename" , "A.exe") ElseIF $Check_EE == "B" Then assign("filename" , "B.exe") ElseIF $Check_EE == "C" Then assign("filename" , "B.exe") EndIF ;--- FileInstall (@ScriptDir & "\" & eval("filename"), @ScriptDir & "\test\" & eval("filename"), 1)  

wrapping shit in execute like this doesnt work either, it gets past the compiler but the resulting script fails.  This might entertain while we find a fun way to pull it off without too much maneuvering.
*Also, i feel that there is a long thread on this topic somewhere on the forum, but i cant find it yet.
ftr, gets past compiler, does not work once compiled:
;----------------------------------------------------- ;#Local Variables Local $Check_EE ;----------------------------------------------------- ;----------------------------------------------------- $Check_EE = "A" ;--- IF $Check_EE == "A" Then assign("filename" , "A.exe") ElseIF $Check_EE == "B" Then assign("filename" , "B.exe") ElseIF $Check_EE == "C" Then assign("filename" , "B.exe") EndIF ;--- execute('FileInstall (@ScriptDir & "\" & eval("filename"), @ScriptDir & "\test\" & eval("filename"), 1)')  

you can, but not like that
;----------------------------------------------------- ;#Local Variables Local $Check_EE ;----------------------------------------------------- ;----------------------------------------------------- $Check_EE = "A" ;--- IF $Check_EE == "A" Then assign("filename" , "A.exe") ElseIF $Check_EE == "B" Then assign("filename" , "B.exe") ElseIF $Check_EE == "C" Then assign("filename" , "B.exe") EndIF ;--- FileInstall (@ScriptDir & "\" & eval("filename"), @ScriptDir & "\test\" & eval("filename"), 1)  

HeyTom,
Why not use the _ArrayInsert function - that is why I wrote it:
#include <Array.au3> #include <String.au3> ; Create original array Local $aArray[6][3] For $i = 0 To 5 For $j = 0 To 2 $aArray[$i][$j] = $i & " - " & $j Next Next _ArrayDisplay($aArray, "2D - Original") ; Create array to insert Local $aFill[][] = [["New", "2 - 1", "2 - 2"], ["New", "3 - 1", "3 - 2"], ["New", "4 - 1", "4 - 2"], ["New", "5 - 1", "5 - 2"]] ; Create delimited string to show where to insert - we insert each time at line 2 $sRange = _StringRepeat("2;", UBound($aFill)) $sRange = StringTrimRight($sRange, 1) ; And insert it _ArrayInsert($aArray, $sRange, $aFill) _ArrayDisplay($aArray, "2D data with row delim string range") M23

Oh shit no, I rarely have an idea whats going in your scripts, i just copy and paste.  Yer where I get all my good string manipulation knowledge, tout cela est grâce a vous.
Also, 100% of the french I know is either Tolstoy or vulgar.

how disappointing...  I was sure yet that despite that you would be able to understand the script... 

It's about time someone apologized for it!
