There are some challenges with running v1 & v2 of AutoHotKey on the same PC and also in VS Code. In this video I go through my setup to show how I’m able to run both versions at the same time using 2 different extensions .ahk & .ahk2.
Please read the article https://cr8ive.tk/?p=7327 as to how Thom from Tab Nation sets up extension association of the different file types (   • AutoHotkey v2 - .ahk vs .ahk2 -How to...  )
For VS Code you will need” vscode-autohotkey-debug” extension by zero-plusplus (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/...) and also A separate extension that supports the AutoHotkey language is required(The most famous is slevesque.vscode-autohotkey). If you are using AutoHotkey v2, another extension that supports it required. (e.g. dudelmoser.vscode-autohotkey2)
The Launch.json file, if you have installed v2 in a subdirectory of v1 AutoHotKey folder is :
{
"configurations": [
{
"name": "AutoHotkey1 Debug",
"type": "autohotkey",
"program":"${file}",
"request": "launch",
"runtimeArgs_v1":[".ahk"],
"port":"9003",
"runtime_v1": "AutoHotkey.exe",
"runtimeArgs":[ "/ErrorStdOut=UTF-8"]

},
{
"name": "AutoHotkey2 Debug",
"type": "autohotkey",
"request": "launch",
"program":"${file}",
"runtimeArgs_v2":[".ah2"],
"runtime_v2": "v2/AutoHotkey64.exe",
"runtimeArgs":[ "/ErrorStdOut=UTF-8"]
},
{
"name": "AutoHotkey2 Debug",
"type": "autohotkey",
"request": "launch",
"runtimeArgs_v2":[".ahk2"],
"port":"9010",
"runtime_v2": "v2/AutoHotkey64.exe",
"program":"${file}",
"runtimeArgs":[ "/ErrorStdOut=UTF-8"]
}
]
}
For version 1 to version 2 AutoHotKey script converter go to :

This program allows you to select a file from your PC, add a Comment/Note/Description and saves it to a file.
Winkey + Spacebar hotkey will open a List of stored files that you can click on to open in the program you have designated to open its specific extension.
eg if you have a .txt file and you've assigned "notepad.exe" as the program to edit that file then when you click on the row of that file it will activate and open it.
