Hello,

I've got the following shortcut:

Which works fine, but if you empty the window field, it stops working altogether... I have no other shortcuts that start with 'CTRL + W'. I've also tried removing and adding this shortcut back

Kind regards
...

This cannot be, are you sure the Window field is empty? If the problem persists, please contact our support mail.

Mhm... I tried looking this up (should've done this in the first place, my bad tbh 😔)

and e.g.:
https://autohotkey.com/board/topic/8917 ... hod-works/

Points to the same particular problem, in regards to Chrome. In my case however, other applications like SumatraPDF, didn't work either... either way, as suggested in the thread, 'Ctrl + F4', which has the same function as 'Ctrl + W', basically fixed this issue for me...

Note:
• Was a bit strange that the shortcut didn't altogether before (at the start of the thread, etc.), but when I tried/tested it today, the MouseMove worked, whereas the 'Ctrl + W' didn't. This lead me to start focusing on 'Ctrl + W' & searching something up; so perhaps not entirely my fault after all...
• I tried SendInput before, didn't work. But doesn't matter now either way.
