Windows: Keyboard stops working

Help, Support & Bugs

Not really. Last time it was Reaper that I wanted to use for some tests, but previously it can be Steam or any other program. I may work on various software before I started Renoise. It would be much easier, I know, if I know which software causes this, but that would need to start Renoise every time I open another program.

Now my keyboard stops working again.
What I was done before:

  1. Using SoundForge
  2. Using Audacity (update) with all plugins scan.

No games.
And as usual - only logout and login into Windows fix it.

I had a similar issue this week (Win 10, nothing too special about it).

I was using a very old VST host called, rather creatively, VSThost from Hermann Seib at the same time and it evidently was grabbing (and keeping hold of) my computer keyboard.

I could name tracks in Renoise, but no keyboard control of functions was possible until I closed VSThost.
Just thought Iā€™d throw that out there.
