Not working with Visual Studio Professional 2017 #153

Closed erkantaylan closed 7 years ago

erkantaylan commented 7 years ago

carnac works at everywhere but vs2017 pro I have VS Pro 2017 Version 15.2 (26430.6)

They did something, a few months ago after I update vs autohortkey stopped working too.

Not sure what you mean by "works" here. Does the solution not open? Or does carnac not work at runtime? Any errors you see would also be helpful to isolate the issue (Event Viewer might have some information too) and also information about your OS version (including the build number).

I mean program runs but does not get any key record. Keys tab shows nothing while I'm using VS2017. But in all other programs works great.

erkantaylan commented 7 years ago

I was running VS as admin because my program needs admin rights, tried to run carnac as admin but you have already an issue for that #115. And sould I edit the title?

Btw can you give some keywords to how did you do this -> I cannot click pressed key list window, when I click it goes below.

I remember Carnac is not able to get the key if the target program is running under Admin privilege.

I think it is working but the settings are bugged see https://github.com/Code52/carnac/pull/151 remove the visual-studio.yml from the keymaps folder or try my version from the fork.

erkantaylan commented 7 years ago

@bfritscher your fork is not working too, it is about running as admin it I don't run VS as admin, carnac works.

bfritscher commented 7 years ago

Ok so what is the problem with running carmac run as admin? I tested it with carmac as admin and notepad as admin and it got the keys. Is there something different with visual studio?

erkantaylan commented 7 years ago

I'm sure carnac was not starting(crashing immediately) when I run it as admin but it works now. You can close the issue. I am able to run carnac as admin and it works with vs2017 and with other apps too. I cannot replicate the crashing issue now.

Closing this issue as solution is not crashing anymore when run as admin
