I saw Micha's script use the API GetMenuItemInfo, so I suppose the infos about the item state are already there. Otherwise, and if you need only the state infos, GetMenuState can be handy as lexicos said.

Hi, it's a great script. I am trying to find a way to reach context menu of an icon in systray and check or uncheck one of its menu items. I want to do it without opening context menu of the program icon in systray. I searched for the whole forum and it seems that there is no an effective solution to my need.
I need help of AHK Gurus.

This is a little bit advanced and depends on the software, but after selecting/deselecting an item most applications are receiving a message about the event. You can try i.e. winspector to "trace" what messages are sent after manually selecting a context menu entry.
If you know the message and parameters you could use sendmessage.
