Hi,
I had a macro in Quick Launch, set to execute by pressing F9. The last time I used it (a few days ago), it worked fine. But now, it doesn't work at all. If I load the macro in the "main panel" of MiniMouseMacro and then run it manually (ie: not by pressing F9), it works.
I reloaded the macro in Quick Launch (still doesn't work), and here's how it's setup:
Anybody has any idea what's going on, or what I can try to solve the problem?
I have MiniMouseMacro Pro (v7.4.0.0), under Windows 10 x64 build 1909. There was a Windows update yesterday, which updated Intel Micro Code. I wonder if it might have something to do with it?... Does anybody have encountered a similar problem?

Hi, I can't seem to replicate your issue. The quick launch seems to be working fine. Are you getting any info come through from the MMM Event Log ( www.turnssoft.com/faq2.html#eventlog)? |

Hi Steve,
Sorry for the late reply. If I just launch MMM, open the log window and then press F9 (which should execute the macro), nothing happens, and nothing appears in the log!?!
But I did a test in which I changed the hotkey (shift-F9 instead of F9), and it worked. But if I then put back F9 as the shortcut key, it doesn't work. So clearly, something interferes with F9. I just don't understand why it suddenly stopped working. If you have any idea on why, please let me know...
By the way, congrats on a great little utility (I'm sure it's not "little" in term of code  ). It seems to be pretty powerful. It would be nice to have more documentation about the interface and the different modules functionalities and interactions. But as I understand it, you're a "one-man" operation, so I know that there are just so many hours in a day. And at the price you charged, I feel bad just mentioning anything. 
One unrelated question if I may: is there a way to retrieve the cursor position (not the mouse position, but the position where type would appear if a key would be pressed). If so, can you tell me how, or give me a link where I might find the answer (I haven't seen anything about that anywhere). I have an idea for a macro that seems to me impossible to implement without that functionnality...
So thanks again for your program, and for your time.

Did you figure this one out? I have some thoughts... Hi Steve, Sorry for the late reply.

But I did a test in which I changed the hotkey (shift-F9 instead of F9), and it worked. But if I then put back F9 as the shortcut key, it doesn't work. So clearly, something interferes with F9. I just don't understand why it suddenly stopped working. If you have any idea on why, please let me know... I'd hazard a guess that ' something' is ' eating' your calls to F9 before Mini Mouse Macro can capture them. F9 is quite a popular key for a whole range of applications. I'd say an application you have running, perhaps one that has focus, is taking your F9 key press. This would explain why shift+f9 is working. By the way, congrats on a great little utility (I'm sure it's not "little" in term of code ). It seems to be pretty powerful.

Hi 100thMonkey,
I have a suggestion, I've found that when I start my PC up for the day and I have MMM auto start that sometimes the quick launch don't work until I open MMM and click the save button.
