  1. Hotkeys being used instead of regular letters


    Hi everyone,

    I've been having this problem quite often on my Windows 10, and it happens only when I am using Anydesk to control another computer. If I use a shortcut such as Win + Down, the Anydesk computer and my own start to only respond to hotkeys and I don't know what to do. And I have to restart the computer 3x or more times a day if I forget that I can't use the hotkeys.

    After I use a shortcut and press A, something opens and the letter doesn't get typed, and so on. Is there another way to fix this that is not restarting the computer?

    Thank you!

    • 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.
