oups, Alf+F12 do not works anywhere...they must be something that capture this...I had this bad joke with Camtasia that uses F9 to stop the recording :/
Reminds me of Intel's GPU driver control panel thing, which happily eats all CTRL+ALT+F1-F12 combinations, even if some of them are not used for any shortcuts...
The point is that the thing has some shortcuts like CTRL+ALT+F9 or whatever for changing the screen rotation, dupe or clone to external port etc. The problem is that it consumes all CTRL+ALT+F... combos, even those that it does not have a shortcut for.
Works for me...

ReplyDeleteWorks for me too.
ReplyDeleteF12 is commonly blocked / used by other applications as a system-wide hotkey. Have you installed or updated anything else?
ReplyDeleteDavid Millington probably...at least Camstasia, but it's not running...is there any way to know wich program hooks the keyboard ?
ReplyDeleteNot that I know of. You can tell if RegisterHotkey returns false that an app has registered it, but not which app. This SO link has some Delphi code using SetWindowsHookEx to try to find the app that's processing it. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/829007/find-out-what-process-registered-a-global-hotkey-windows-api/887086#887086
ReplyDeleteEven if Camtasia isn't running, does it have a non-visible process running? Lots of apps run utility or background services.

ReplyDeleteAsbjørn Heid Is that "Intel Grafik HD"? A customer emailed me to say that was the source of a similar problem.
ReplyDeleteDavid Millington Yeah, can't recall the exact name of the thing but very close to that yes.

ReplyDeleteAsbjørn Heid I remember something like Ctrl-Shift-Left or so were captured by various display driver "tools".
