not work when !]:: Send("^{Insert}a")

When pressing Alt+] we expect it to copy and type "a", but "a" is not typed as expected (select all instead).
For comparison, the following code works fine when pressing Shift+]

Is this behaviour consistent between left Alt and right Alt? I have a suspicion it's AltGr issue.

Thank you for your insight! This bug only occurs at the right Alt.

I am dubious. The hotkey !]:: would not execute if you held AltGr, because the system treats AltGr as Alt+Ctrl. Pressing AltGr+] would have the same effect as without the script, which is not to select all. On the US International layout, it is to produce ». Even !»:: doesn't execute if I press AltGr+], although ^»:: does.

Can you reproduce this bug on the right Alt? The left Alt is fine.

Alt and AltGr are not the same thing. AltGr is always on the right.
What keyboard layout are you using?

I'm in China and I use US keyboard layout, so I don't have the AltGr key. When executing
my AutoHotkey history is
Code: Select all
A5 138 d 3.50 RAlt
DD 01B d 0.31 ]
A2 01D i d 0.00 LControl
A5 138 i u 0.00 RAlt
2D 152 i d 0.00 Insert
2D 152 i u 0.00 Insert
41 01E i d 0.00 a
41 01E i u 0.00 a
11 01D i d 0.00 Control
A5 138 i d 0.00 RAlt
11 01D i u 0.00 Control
DD 01B u 0.09 ]
A5 138 u 0.03 RAlt
There's no AltGr.

Fixed by v2.0.12.
@ZhuangQu it would have been helpful to say that when mcl first brought up AltGr.
