I know this is a fairly specialized issue but I'm going to throw it out there.

I frequently type using another language keyboard and switch back and forth between it and English. To make this easier, I use commonly used program for linguists called Keyman by Tavultesoft. (https://keyman.com/windows/) When I use it, FastKeys' text expander function basically stops working, which isn't ideal because I commonly use text phrases when I'm needing to switch languages.

Are there any users of both these programs out there that have found a way to have them work in conjunction.

I'm using Windows 10, Core I7 processor, 16 Gb RAM.

Interestingly, on a side note, it does cause an unusual other glitch. When both Keyman and FastKeys are running, typing a "c" will cause the calculator to run.

Any help would be appreciated.

Does language changes work if Keyman is disabled? If yes then this application prevents Fastkeys keyboard hook. Try running FastKeys after Keyman.
