FastKeys Forum

I've got FastKeys run "Fastkeys on Startup". However, the 1st time I try to activate a text expander string, nothing happens, even after multiple attempts.

The only way to get the text expander stings to work is to either "Reload" from tray icon or open up settings and click "Save" with or without any changes actually being done. After that, everything works fine.

Is there some setting or something else I need to do so it works when 1st used?

Is FastKeys loaded properly - do you see a tray icon? Are other modules working (Start Menu, Shortcuts, Auto Complete)?

Could you try enabling Run as Administrator option (Properties/Functions/Run as Administrator)?

I'm going to try running as admin. I have to reload the app several times per day. It's getting really annoying. Just stops working...but remains in the task list and the tray icon still works. But macros dont.

dougbrian, that's exactly what I was trying to explain. Thanks for explaining it so much better
