Environment

Windows build number: 10.0.18363.720
PowerToys version: v0.16.1
PowerToy module for which you are reporting the bug (if applicable): Window Walker

Steps to reproduce

  • Press hotkeys (Win + 1) to launch Capture2Text
  • Capture2Text launches
  • Window Walker launches
  • Change Capture2Text hotkeys to (Win + 2)
  • Press hotkeys (Win + 2)
  • Capture2Text launches

Expected behavior

  • Only Capture2Text launches when Capture2Text hotkeys are pressed

Information about Capture2Text

Additional information

I'm not sure if this is a problem with Window Walker or Capture2Text. I suspect it is a problem with Window Walker, which is why I posted the issue here. If the problem is with Capture2Text, please advise, and I will post the issue there.

@DannyDeLoach:
Have you changed the shortcut for WindowWalker too? Because Win+1 is not the deafault hotkey for WindowWalker.

By the way, the shortcut Win+1 is a default shortcut in Windows to run the first app pinned to taskbar.

Forget this. My mistake. You can't change it.

Do the issue disapear if you replace Win-key within the shortcut for Capture2Text.

Then it seems to have to do with the following issue: https://sourceforge.net/p/capture2text/tickets/34/

Best regards.

Window walker will be merged in shortly with the launcher code base. I don't think we'd really want to invest much time on this to be honest as any fix would be throw away work in a bit over a month

I apologize for not responding sooner. I misunderstood how Github notifies me of responses. So, I didn't see this until now.

In response to @htcfreek's question, I changed the hotkeys for Capture2Text from (Win + 1 ) to (Alt + 1). After I did this, Window Walker no longer launches when I use the Capture2Text hotkeys.
