Help me: main character does not react to keyboard

Dear players!

I use hotkeynet. I have vista New computer. I opened all five windows logged in with all five and my main character does not react to any of the keyboard commands. Only the other four react. If I turn off hotkeys then my main works perfect. I turn back hotkeys again and same problem: for some reason the main character does not follow keyboard commands.

Do you know what the problems is?

Thank you for your help!

Hey biceboca - hard to say conclusively with the information you provided ... I love HKN and am no expert but I can try and help if you can post your HKN script you've loaded (filtered if necessary). It might be helpful to also let us know what the HKN console window is saying when you are pressing each key.

You're so kind! Ok I paste info.

I am already lvl 60 with all five druids. ONly have this strange problem now.

My windows are renamed as 1,2,3,4,5

my guess is the problem may be that for window 1 it also adds - user administrator. My guess is that this causes the probelem. I dont know how to get rid of the use adminstrator part if hit is really the problem. Here I copy the last execution from my hotkeynet: - can you see the stupid "User administrator" (he window is simply neamed as "1". My guess is thie stupid addition what causes the problem but not sure.

From this pc: <SendWinM 1><Key T><SendWinM 2><Key T><SendWinM 3><Key T><SendWinM 4><Key T><SendWinM 5><Key T>
<SendWinM 1> completed: Window found. Target set to 0x170668 "1-User Administrator"
<Key T> completed
<SendWinM 2> completed: Window found. Target set to 0x1C0496 "2"
<Key T> completed
<SendWinM 3> completed: Window found. Target set to 0x1001D8 "3"
<Key T> completed
<SendWinM 4> completed: Window found. Target set to 0x13058C "4"
<Key T> completed
<SendWinM 5> completed: Window found. Target set to 0x1805F0 "5"

And this is my full script:

Window 1 is still not responding only the other four windows.

(No "1-user adminstator" was not the problem either. Here is the execution now looks good but still does not work:

From this pc: <SendWinM 1><Key Backspace><SendWinM 2><Key Backspace><SendWinM 3><Key Backspace><SendWinM 4><Key Backspace><SendWinM 5><Key Backspace>

there is an easier way.

If you turn off HKN and press "T" (or whatever key you're trying to send-to-all) in the main window, does it work for the main window?

Yes it does! If I turn off hotkeynet my main works perfect! That is why this is a puzzle.

I solved the problem!!!! This was the conflict: I had multiple users on my computer and the first user was also named "1". THis for some strange reason created a conflict this is why my window "1" did not react when hotkeynet was on because my user account also was called "1". Now I changed my user account's name and now hotkeynet rocks again!!! - it all works for all windows again.

It is strange why a window name interfered with a user account name but it did. Well interesting! You may warn others who intend to install hotkeynet not to name their user accounts the same name as the wow window's name.

Thank you all for your helps! SOrry for double posting I thouhgt I posted on the wrong forum so I posted it on the technical issues too.

Thank you once more!! Problem solved!

I think it's a privilege problem, not anything that's caused by HotkeyNet. Somehow or other, your main WoW is getting launched with a different set of account credentials than HotkeyNet or the other WoWs. I think this is why Windows displays "User Administrator." This sounds like "run as administrator" but they are two different things.

Before I go on, you may not need to fix the problem. If the main WoW is always in the foreground, you can add "PassThrough" to all your hotkeys and everything will probably work even though the problem isnt' really fixed.

If the main WoW isn't in the foreground, then you'll need to really fix the problem. I suggest looking at the way in which that copy of WoW is getting launched.

Edit: Oops, our posts crossed. :) Grats on figuring it out.

I tried to duplicate the problem by creating an account named 1 and renaming a window 1. I can't get the problem to occur. This is on 64 bit Vista SP 1. I think there may be some additional factor involved.
