    App hotkeys does not work on desktop Windows 10


    Hello!

    Today I discovered that all of my hotkeys do not work on desktop, but when any app is open i mean not minimized, but it can be not active, they work as intented. Yesterday my hotkeys were working, from that time I did not install any apps, did not change any of my Windows settings and I did not recieve any Windows updates.

    I already tried rebooting, booting in clean mode, reassigning my shortcuts, changing keyboard settings, running Windows troubleshooting and system check, no result.

    Any ideas why this strange behavior can happen? Maybe someone knows how to fix it.

    Thanks in advance.

    :)

    Hi,

    There may be several reasons why the hotkeys stopped working after the upgrade. We suggest you to run the hardware troubleshooter to resolve your concern. Kindly follow the steps below:

    • Type Troubleshooting in the search box and hit enter.
    • Click on Troubleshooting tab.
    • Click on view all option on the upper left corner.
    • Select the Hardware and Device options from the list.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Weather App not working windows 8.1

    I have no problems with the weather app... on my pc, tablets, laptops, or windows phones.
    Must be regional/local problems.

    Or, your store/app data files may be corrupt.
    Might want to try the apps troubleshooter.

    I used this method and get solution for wifi keys problem on windows 10 on Me HCL laptop.

    I suggest you to try installing Hotkeys driver.

    Follow these steps after install the drivers check if that helps.

    • Download the keyboard drivers and hot fix (PHotkeys) driver from the manufacturer’s website.
    • Install driver on your system
    • Go to Path of installed driver Right-click on the driver setup file and click on ‘Troubleshoot comparability’.
    • On the ‘Test Compatibility settings for the program pop up windows’ open and click the box ‘Test the program’ Once this is done, check if the issue persists.
