Bug description

Windows 11 key binding issues on fresh install of shotr

Steps to reproduce the bug

1.) Once shotr opens try to set hotkey to prtscn

Actual result: Error message when set, looks like it is set but when hitting prtscn nothing happened NOTE: I was able to change the hotkey to something else (lets say prtscn + shift) and it worked. After that I changed it to prtscn again no error message and it worked just fine.

Expected result: Hotkey should have been set

Hey @dreyes333!

I was able to set the prntscn key with my windows 11 install and even on start. Are you running anything else that might be taking over that key?

No, I am not. I think it is Important to note that error happened upon fresh install of shotr and Windows 11. Was going to uninstall and reinstall to see if it would happen again but ahvent had a chance to look.

Probably because snipping tool can reserve that key by default now.

@dreyes333 any update to whether or not you were able to figure it out? I'm still unable to replicate this from my side.

We were never able to reproduce it. Let's close it for now.
