Recent Windows update broke my Win+Key commands

Post by asheroto » 29 Sep 2020, 19:26

Aloha all,

I love AutoHotkey!

I recently updated 3 of my computers to the latest version of Windows. Since then, whenever I press Win+K or Win+U, Windows beats AutoHotkey and pops up with the start menu and AutoHotkey doesn't respond to either key combo.

My script hasn't changed at all, only Windows update. Using AutoHotkey v1.1.33.02.

Not all of the commands are broken, such as Win+H, but I assume that's only because it's not defaulted to anything in Windows.

Everything else works.

I also have #InstallKeybdHook at the beginning of the script, have tried with and without it.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
