Keys don't show activation colour in certain apps like Discord or Rainbow6 #25

The pressure levels work but the colour stays the same.

This issue was added as documentation as I did a lot of debugging beforehand and found that at least on Windows 11, apps are allowed to somehow block keyboard hooks to allow listening to key states (possibly for security). Launching the desktop client in administrator mode fixed these issues.

Since the only way to probably get this to work is force running in administrator mode, it might scare away potential users and introduce security risks so I will add this into troubleshooting documentation and keep the code as is.
