Area(s) with issue?
Environment Variables, Keyboard Manager
Steps to reproduce
I access the environmental variables using this button:
✔️ Expected Behavior
Pushing the 'Caps Lock' key on my keyboard should act as Ctrl (as remapped through the keyboard manager).
❌ Actual Behavior
The 'Caps Lock' key returns to its original function while the environmental variables window is open (and remains like this even for other applications). The 'Caps Lock' key becomes Ctrl again when this window is closed.
