    Windows 10 shortcut key not working - Please help

    Hey guys,

    I'm trying to create a shortcut key for a program/script that turns off my monitor. I've confirmed that the small program is working by double clicking on it. The problem I'm having is that when I go to create a shortcut key for it. First I create a shortcut to the program, then I set a shortcut key, say "ctrl-shift-s". After applying the changes, clicking Ok, I try to use the shortcut by pressing the ctrl-shift-s key combination. When I do this, nothing happens. I've confirmed that shortcut keys works with other apps like the Command Prompt. Does anyone have any insight to this?

    Cheers,

    grecinos

    2. Type services.msc and press Enter.
    3. Right-click Human Interface Device Service > Start. If it is already running, click Restart. Right-click it again and select Refresh.

    2. Under Apps & features, scroll down the page and click Snip & Sketch. Then select Advanced options.
    3. Click Reset. When prompted to confirm your action, click Reset again.
    4. Once the process is finished, restart your computer and check if the issue has been resolved.

    I hope this helps!

    Hi,

    Sticky Keys is a Windows Ease of Access feature that makes it possible to use keyboard shortcuts or type capital letters without needing to press more than one key at once. Since the sticky keys still turning back on when the Shift key is pressed 5 times, you
    can disable it by following the steps below:

    • Press the Windows key.
    • Type "Turn on easy access keys".
    • Press the Enter key.
    • Click Set up Sticky Keys.
    • Uncheck Turn on Sticky Keys when SHIFT is pressed five times.
    • Click Apply.
