I've been using hotkeys for years to do things like move windows between monitors, enter long blocks of text, and even enter passwords. All of a sudden some (but not all) of my hotkeys have stopped working. For example I have the following in my AutoHotkey.ahk file:
:*:][p::pa$$word!123
If I'm in Notepad and type ][p, my password string appears, but if I'm on a site where I'm being prompted for my password and type ][p, it just remains as ][p instead of my password string. This has just started happening recently.
The same goes for my hotkeys that let me move windows to different monitors. The hotkey works to move a window from monitor 1 to monitor 2, but it doesn't work to move a window from monitor 2 to monitor 1 (and it used to).
Has some other software hijacked my hotkeys or what? Is there a way to see what hotkeys are active in Win10?
Thanks.

Re: some hotkeys have suddenly stopped working
Test if it works when you run your AHK script as admin. My impression (which might be wrong, though) is that more and more of Win10 apps/programs are running with elevated rights (but not Notepad). If you haven't changed your AHK version, obviously something on your system must have changed...
The monitor thing might be some other problem - I would recommend that you post your code.
