cannot get simple function key scripts to work

[rayhill1]

Code: Select all

I have just started with autohotkey and must be making a very basic mistake.

ON win 10 I have created the following:

F12::
Send, 01808521282
Return

It worked once and then nothing happens when i hit F12

Any suggestion would be very welcome

may try this at the beginning.
<code>
#SingleInstance force
#Persistent ; Keeps a script permanently running (that is, until the user closes it or ExitApp is encountered).
#NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir% ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.
