script have priority over any program

25 Apr 2019, 15:06

I created a simple media keys autokeys to play media player and spotify, but the hotkeys don't work while using most of programs I use, games, open office etc... so far it only works while on desktop and chrome.
is there any way to make the script's hotkeys take priority over anything else?

You can elevate the script's process priority with Process, Priority,, High. I'm not sure if it's going to solve your problem, though.

I'm a bit new to this, should I just copy and paste it on the script and reload it? Cause if so, it didn't work.
One thing I noticed is that windowed games it works, but not fullscreen games and (oddly) open office
