How to remove permanently a hotkey? #6

Hello,

A few weeks ago, I created a hotkey using HotkeyP to easily paste a long text that I often use as a prompt for ChatGPT. The keyboard shortcut I assigned was Alt+\ while the parameter is the prompt text.

Yesterday, I tried to change some words in that prompt text, but I couldn't figure out why the text remained unchangeable. Even though I deleted all hotkeys and created a new one, the problem is still unresolved.

Today, I decided to remove HotkeyP completely from my pc in the hope that the keyboard shortcut would return to normal and stop pasting the prompt text. However, after restarting my pc, I found that every time I press the shortcut, it still pastes the same prompt text.

Please help me how I can remove this hotkey so that I can assign a new hotkey using the same keyboard shortcut.

Thank you for your help! :)

It usually happens if HotkeyP is running twice. For example if you installed both 32bit and 64bit versions, or if you run it from TEMP folder and Program Files folder, or if you start it simultaneously from Task Scheduler and Start up folder. You can use Task Manager or Process Explorer to see if HotkeyP is running and to find its location.
