Windows 10: AutoHotKey behavior in 10

Hello, i use this app to remap keyboard keys/shortcuts, it seems it works in explorer only, in browsers (for example) it doesn't.. Strange, how to fix that?

Snipping Tool in Windows10 - odd behavior

For #1, there is a workaround. you can automate SnippingTool using AutoHotKey. Here is a script.

Hi, perhaps you can post a couple of examples.. and the browser they don't work in for you so someone might be able to suggest sthg.

Whilst I have AHK installed for a few small scripts, I don't use it for that.

 

Any of the most popular browser.m

 

Did you mean it works in File Explorer [formerly Windows Explorer in Win7 and earlier] but not in browsers such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, SeaMonkey, Pale Moon, etc.? How about in other programs?

 

CORRECT. I don't recall for other apps but I'm guessing it would be same..!

 

If you can post a couple of relevant excerpts from your remapping script perhaps someone could try it for you.
That's what I meant above- sorry if not clear.

 

Dunno what happened or if it's just cause different computer but the back/forward shortcut now works..

However, I still have the issue with media keys while player is in background.. How do I fix that?

 

This issue prevents me from really moving to 10..

 

Sorry, you'll have to explain- I've really no idea what you mean. Thanks.
Screenshot if relevant..

 

Screenshot..?! Here is the AutoHotKey script part you need to see :

^#Up::Send {Media_Stop}
^#Down::Send {Media_Play_Pause}
^#Left::Send {Media_Prev}
^#Right::Send {Media_Next}

 

Hi, thanks, I understand what you're trying to do. (No need to use !'s- I qualified screenshot with 'if relevant' on the principle that a picture can be worth 1000 scripts).
If that doesn't work (and you could always make WMP topmost - I'm presuming you mean Windows Media Player) then have you seen this?

Add Global Hotkeys to Windows Media Player
I've not tried it and don't know specifically if it works in Win 10 etc. I'll leave it to you to experiment.

 

Oddly, your hotkeys started working with WMP as an inactive window, when they weren't before.

Note this example for Winamp: - the test is a good idea, of course.
However I haven't been able to get Controlsend to work in your example despite trying a few variations.

This section demonstrates how to control Winamp via hotkey even when it is minimized or inactive. This information has been tested with Winamp 2.78c but should work for other major releases as well. Please post changes and improvements in the forum or contact the author.

This example makes the Ctrl+Alt+P hotkey equivalent to pressing Winamp's pause/unpause button:

^!p::
IfWinNotExist ahk_class Winamp v1.x
return
; Otherwise, the above has set the "last found" window for use below.
ControlSend, ahk_parent, c ; Pause/Unpause
return

 

I use media monkey mostly, then VLC..
