Re: Disable caps lock caps functionallity while being able to bind it ingame
Thank you!. That's definitely what was happening, I was pressing the shift key at the same time, locking it into the shifted On state. Basically, that is a variation of the very typo I am trying to make impossible to type, by defeating the bleeping CapsLock key. I've now set it to *CapsLock::Return ...

Re: Disable caps lock caps functionallity while being able to bind it ingame
Well for the last few weeks I've been running a script where the only only thing in it is: CapsLock::Return This works at first, where pressing the CapsLock key does nothing at all. But sooner or later something happens where it gets defeated, and everything is typed in capitals, though pressing the...

Re: Locking the function keys, unless modified
Thanks for the reply! I will check out those threads, I have the functions keys set in the bios the say I want them, where the default is for them to be regular function keys, with the Fn key enabled, and the secondary media/hardware control keys as keys available only when the Fn key is disabled. P...

Locking the function keys, unless modified
Is there any way to lock the a keyboard’s 12 main function keys so that they always perform their original context-dependent F-key function (e.g., F2 renames selected file in Explorer), independent of the keyboard’s lower left Fn key, which would toggles the 12 keys between their original native pur...

Re: Disable caps lock caps functionallity while being able to bind it ingame
Interesting. There ARE other scripts/commands in the .ahk file that I've placed this commands. Maybe if I make it the last item in the file? I will experiment!
Thank you!
Thank you!

Re: Disable caps lock caps functionallity while being able to bind it ingame
Thank you for that nearly instant reply! That works. It has an interesting effect. If I just press the caps key, it does nothing. But if I press and hold the key and then type another key, it toggles the caps function. Is that a byproduct, of the method being used, or somehow part of the design? It'...

Re: Disable caps lock caps functionallity while being able to bind it ingame
Hi. I'm piggybacking on this older thread, rather than start a new one pretty much the same question... I hope that's ok.... I am still using AHK 1.1. I would like to completely disable my caps lock key. I don't want to bind its functionality elsewhere. I don't want to assign any other key to it. I ...

Re: Auto-replace hotstrings misfiring
Hello. Belated thanks for your reply. I have tried what you suggested. But there doesn't seems to be any conflict that I can identify. What kind of "conflict" could it be? Even with a greatly reduced number of abbreviations, the ones that remain eventually misfire. It's happening on two different Wi...

Re: Simulating a Ctrl key
Thank you! That didn't work or do anything that I was able to notice. But I had previously used a scan code for the menu key, and when I substituted that for AppsKey in your code, it worked! SC15D::SC15D SC15D & RAlt::Ctrl But it is dependent on the keys being pressed in that order. And when I swap ...

Simulating a Ctrl key
Hi. I am using a new device that does not have a right side Ctrl key. It does have a standard right side Alt key and a standard "right click" context menu key. Is it possible to use those two keys together to function as a Ctrl key in combination with another randomly variable key, to send standard ...

Auto-replace hotstrings misfiring
I have a script with about 200 hotstring abbreviations that I've accumulated over the years. The script worked as expected with Windows 8.1. But with W10 on a different device, they inconsistently misfire. They are all in a simple list. None of the hotstrings and their replacement text are long, and...

Thank you! There errors I was getting were pointing to a problem with spaces in the path. But it turns out that if I put "%1" in quotes, everything works as expected.

Re: Hotkey Help - Display Active AHK Hotkeys and Hotstrings
How can I make Hotkey Help use Notepad++ when it opens a script for editing? I just did a clean installation of Windows 7, and the Hotkey Help script is using the native Windows Notepad. I'm pretty sure that previously it would open scripts in NPP. am I remembering that incorrectly, or have I just ...

@AHKxx, The following should work. See this post for more information. #^!Shift:: #^+Alt:: #!+Ctrl:: ^!+LWin:: ^!+RWin:: Send {Blind}{vk07} return Cheers! Thank you! That bit of code seems to have worked. I didn't think I'd be the only one dealing with this, and was glad to see the confirmation. Mo...

Re: AHK hot keys conflict with Windows 10 default shortcuts
Thanks for checking. All I need to do is press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Winkey, without any other keys , and as soon as I lift those keys, that Office window either opens or is brought to the front if it is already opened. It doesn't seem to matter what order the keys are pressed or released. When there IS an...

Hi. I've been using AHK mostly under Windows 8.1 Pro and have a large number of scripts and AHK hot keys that I depend on. I have recently and reluctantly had to start using Windows 10 Pro as my main device. Most AHK scripts work as expected but I've come up against a couple of very annoying conflic...

I am trying to add a specific ahk script to the Start screen in Windows 10. None of the methods of adding an item to Start is working. I can add AHK itself, but not the specific ahk file. There is no "Pin to Start" option. And other methods I've used to get around that, like creating a shortcut to a...

Re: Hotkey Help - Display Active AHK Hotkeys and Hotstrings
That was it!
I should have done a registry search and found it, but I got stuck thinking it might be in a script or how AHK was set up.
Thanks.
Those two scripts are at the center of all my set ups.
