Failed to register hotkey: Alt + Space

OK

Hey how's it going, this error likely due to your alt+space being taken up by another app, do you have PowerToys Run running by any chance?

I have the same issue, flow launcher is not opening with alt+space, even though nothing is using those hotkeys

Can you check for me if flow icon is in your taskbar tray(bottom right hand corner). If not can you check in task manager if you have the flow.launcher.exe process running please.

Yes, flow launcher was not onthe taskbar tray, I think this was the problem. It is working now

Hi, I still have this issue persisting time to time. One day it is working fine, the next day the flow icon is not in the task bar and fails to launch when I try to run the program.

Could you share the log (you can fine where the log is stored by the issue template)? Lets see whether we have some exception causing flow stop working.

The log doesn't involve useful information. I feel like either it is because the access is denied (because alt+space is a context menu hotkey hosted by windows), or some other program is using alt+space.

Do you mind attaching the log after it fails to launch, might be some info there.

If the icon is not there, flow must have crashed some how.

2022-09-15.txt Log for when it crashed. When clicking FL icon, it still does not open

Hey, any update on this? It looks like it happened again, and trying to relaunch it doesn't work 2022-10-21.txt

Hi there, I haven't had a chance to look at this yet, this is not related to the original issue anymore let's break it out to a seperate one.

jjw24 avatar Oct 31 '22 07:10 jjw24

Closing, the original issue is related to Flow's default hotkey ready in use.
