I have a problem with a WheelUp/Down script I made. Whenever I lock my screen, those two hotkeys stop working until I restart my computer. That is the only way I can get the hotkeys to start working again. Restarting the script does nothing and the scroll button continues to work normaly once the scripts is closed. I'm at a loss and was wondering if anyone else has come across this problem. Currently I have version 1.0.25.14 installed on Windows XP Professional. Below is a simple scripts for anyone else to try. Run the script, lock the screen (Win+L), sign back in, and see if the script still works. Thanks


Code:
WheelUp::
MsgBox, Wheel Up
Return

WheelDown::
MsgBox, Wheel Down
Return

I tried it on XP Pro and can't reproduce it: the wheel hotkeys still work after unlocking the workstation.

I suspect this might have something to do with any extra mouse software you have running, such as Intellipoint. If this applies to your mouse, you might try temporarily disabling that software.

On my system, no such problem occurs, running 1.0.29. Perhaps you could update and see if that fixes it.

Edit: Ok, Chris, that was just freaky. Very Happy

Perhaps it is an intellipoint problem. It is my work computer (Dell XP Pro SP1) so I don't have rights to uninstall things. It also logs me out every time the screen saver comes on. If I had the choice I wouldn't have it log out and everything would be fine, but that is not an option. O well, thanks for the help. I'll change the script to use other keys.
