Steps to reproduce

Remap Keys (no option in form drop-down):

Remap Keys interface only displays 2 saved remaps after leaving interface and returning. It will not allow me to view or change the third one I made. I know that, even though it's not listed, the third configuration is in effect as my keyboard is still behaving according to that configuration. Consequently, it seems that I will have to delete one or both the visible configurations (that are satisfactory) in order to be able to modify the third. I cannot say that doing so will necessarily render the third configuration visible on the list of saved configurations. The point is it's not displaying all actively enforced configs and that's a bug.

✔️ Expected Behavior

It should be displaying all saved/active configurations for modification or deletion.

❌ Actual Behavior

It only displays 2 configurations (of the 3 that I've saved and can confirm are all, actively, being executed).

I think I figured out the issue. I configured both windows keys, separately as the generic driver didn't properly recognize my Royal Kludge keyboard layout and transposed the Windows key with the alt key. The tool wound up merging the two configurations. In other words, instead of separate configs for Win (left) & Win (right) it merged the the two into Win (an option in the dropdown menu after selecting the key to be over ridden. Smart, yes, but confusing.
