Cant Crouch and walk left.

Hey there everyone,

I recently built a new pc, and it allowed me to play Apex again, which i'm super glad with. Everything works perfectly fine, but there is only one problem. Whenever i crouch, i can (crouch)walk forward, backwards, and to my right. But it won't ever allow me to (crouch)walk left.

It has been standard for me to hold both Ctrl and Shift while moving around, crouching. And i feel like there is a shortcut binded to Ctrl+Shift+A. But i have no clue what uses that shortcut. I never set up that shortcut anywhere. And on my last computer i never had this problem. My question is does anybody know what i could do about this? Do i have to change some settings somewhere?

Have a good one,

Exane.

    I quite recently found out that, for some reason, razer synapse was using that key combination. Even though i have never even put any custom key combination in there. Neither did i find any pre-existing ones in the program.

    If you shut down razer synapse or uninstall it, it should work perfectly fine!

    Hi @DragonCuddles. 


    That's odd. I don't recall ever running into a problem with that particular key combo. 

    I'm wondering if there might be something else running in the background that's "eating" that particular combination of inputs. When you have a chance can you try starting up your PC in a Clean Boot to see if that makes any difference at all? 

    For more information on how to set one up check out the EA Help website. Let me know if you're still running into the same issue. Thanks!

    For all those that can't find a solution to this. I had trouble with ctrl+D.
    Solved it with AutoHotkey and some sorcery.

    1: install [CM - removed link]
    2: create a new .ahk file with this inside it: 

    ^D::
KeyDown := !KeyDown
If KeyDown
	SendInput {d down}
Else 
	SendInput {d down}
Return

^D up::
   SendInput {d}
return

    ^ = ctrl
    replace D with your key

    3. open the file. That's it, this solved the issue for me

    you can also go ahead and copy/make a shortcut of this in the Startup folder so it automatically opens
    C:\Users\*user*\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

    Since this is an old post that was inactive for a couple years I am going to lock it to prevent further necro-posting. 

    If you need some help with a similar issue please feel free to create a new thread, and we can take a look. Thanks!
