Crtl gets stuck

21 Feb 2018, 12:00

Code: Select all

~RCtrl UP::
    send, {AppsKey} ; Replace RCTRL with MENU
return
I use this code and have tried several different versions of it, but no matter what I still get times were the CTRL key gets stuck.

Sometimes I can correct this by rapidly hitting the RCTRL, sometimes it works by pausing the script, but then worst case i need to lock the computer, then 'change user' and log back in.

Here you go.

Code: Select all

#SingleInstance, Force
RControl::AppsKey

Does that #singleinstance only apply to the next line, or every line below it?

The SingleInstant is so that you won't accidentally run multiple instances of the script. It's not needed, but I highly recommend it.

Thanks for the help. I have it in the script now, but it can be a few days between times when it happens.

This new script doesn't allow me to use this CTRL key in combinations. (i.e. CTRL+P)

Sounds strange, could you send me what you're trying to do?
