Inconsistent and erratic #44

Closed ghost closed 8 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

I purchased PowerKey a few minutes ago, and it doesn't work very well. It only works about half the time I press it. Also, when I press the key multiple times in a row, it only works for the first one or two presses. Sometimes it randomly makes my computer go into Sleep mode. The behavior is erratic and inconsistent. I'm using a 2015 MacBook Pro with macOS Sierra. I have uninstalled PowerKey on Gumroad and I would like to request a refund please. Thank you.

No problem, I'll send a refund. Thanks.

Pressing the Power key doesn't always work.

Apple has made mode-switching keys such as Caps-Lock and Power somewhat harder to accidentally press.

You must firmly press the key for half-a-tick longer than a normal keypress for it to be recognized.
