            invoke WriteConsoleA, STDHandle, ADDR StartOfMain, LENGTHOF StartOfMain, ecx, 0 ;Uses 2Byte Tchar's
           
            invoke WaitForSingleObject,hEventStart,INFINITE

            invoke WriteConsoleA, STDHandle, ADDR RecvEvent, LENGTHOF RecvEvent, ecx, 0 ;Uses 2Byte Tchar's
            ret

Is it normal that I must call Invoke once for each thread, It appears that if I call it once it only triggers one thread that is Sync waiting with 9 others for the same event, Why is it not triggering the event on all threads?

bManualReset [in]

    If this parameter is TRUE, the function creates a manual-reset event object, which requires the use of the ResetEvent function to set the event state to nonsignaled. If this parameter is FALSE, the function creates an auto-reset event object, and system automatically resets the event state to nonsignaled after a single waiting thread has been released.
