  1. "Ctrl + Alt + K" Shortcut Still Tries to Open Kindle After Uninstalling App


    Hi,I’m using Windows 11 latest version and frequently work with Figma, which uses the shortcut "Ctrl + Alt + K" for an important feature. However, whenever I press this shortcut, my PC tries to open the Kindle app.I checked the properties for the Kindle app and removed the shortcut assignment, but the problem persisted. I even uninstalled the Kindle app, hoping this would free up the shortcut for use in Figma. Unfortunately, even after uninstalling, pressing "Ctrl + Alt + K" still triggers an attempt to open Kindle.Does anyone have suggestions on how to fully remove this shortcut conflict so

    :)

  2. How to remove hotkey on Amazon Kindle PC that opens application

    You also need to check to see if there is a Kindle shortcut on your desktop. If so, you will also need to remove the shortcut key from that shortcut using the same instructions here.

    I found that even after removing the shortcut from the start menu shortcut, ctrl+alt+k still opened the kindle app.

    How to remove hotkey on Amazon Kindle PC that opens application

    As of today, Ctrl + Alt + k began to randomly open the Kindle application on my Windows computer. This hotkey used to open my keepass application. Is there any way to disable this hotkey? This specific hotkey isn't even listed on Amazon's own keyboard shortcuts page

    Kindle Version: 1.23.1 (50133)

    Windows 10 Home version 1709

    CTRL+SHIFT+8 and some others not working

    Okay thanks. Didn't know that tool.
    It does list Ctrl+Shift+, 3 & 8. But it doesn't say what they're registered to. (And nothing seems to happen when I press them.)

    The tool turns up a very short list, by the way, compared to the screenshots on that site. Just these three plus:
    Hot Key : Alt+Ctrl+Delete
    Hot Key : Alt+Ctrl+J (I know what this is from)
    Hot Key : Alt+Ctrl+K (Kindle)
    Hot Key : Alt+F4
