Keyboard locked to game
When i run my game which i just recently reinstalled on a computer that can more than handle everything, it locks my keyboard to the game and doesnt allow me to use the keybindings i have for muting ...
I did not, but my friend uses the same key without it being unbound. so it has to be something with the installation or something on my version of the game.
maybe worth checking what version of obs he is using, everyone has the same swtor version
OBS is just the example i used, it is also locking out discord and my windows hotkeys other than alt+tab. the problem for the last time, is with the game and not the other programs as they have all been checked throuroughly before coming here to post and ask.
If your friends is working fine and it is not a key bind conflict with keys like with the CTRL key as that key is hard coded for certain commands
Maybe boot up under a clean boot https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/how-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows-da2f9573-6eec-00ad-2f8a-a97a1807f3dd incase some other program overlay is causing issues
I do appreciate your patience and help do not take anything I say or have said in the wrong way I am just getting frustrated.
The thing that is bothering me the most, is even after trying to boot it in safe mode and unistall and reinstall and every single step. Every time I open the settings it has 3 options for fullscreen exclusive mode, Fullscreen (fullscreen exclusive mode), Windowed (fullscreen exclusive mode), And Windowed-Fullscreen (Fullscreen exclusive mode). Now as far as I am aware fullscreen exclusive mode means keybindings that arent part of that game wont work. there is no way to disable fullscreen exclusive mode and the problem is 100% that and not some other magical fix im going to get by booting my game from administrator mode on some other profile... the problem is in the coding of the windows... so do i find a mod to fix that and unlock the window? because booting my machine in 100 different ways that i have already done isnt gonna change the fact that it says Exclusive mode on all of them.
Rant over... nothing directed at anyone but this stupid Exclusive mode that is the only form of the window i can have open.
