ERROR: hotkey: xxx is registered about hotkey HOT 6 CLOSED

Actually it was totally my bad, I was misusing the library - instantiating it in the wrong place of execution :) Thank you for your help though!

I think this is a known issue, see #11

from hotkey.

So this means that there is no solution currently? Sorry I am far from familiar with native terms, so hard to understand the conclusion from the linked issue

from hotkey.

The reason for having this error is that someone else had registered this hotkey combination already. To solve it, guarantee the key combination does not conflict with others.

I think @ventsislav-georgiev worked on potential solutions before, but we have not converged to a satisfactory solution yet.

from hotkey.

So this means that if some app, somewhere somehow assigned a key bind and this app is not even active anymore / not listening for key use, this lib won't be able to use this shortcut anyway? Because I am assigning completely "random" shortcut making sure it is not used (when I use it nothing happens), it still returns an error

from hotkey.

I think if you already grabbed the combination for your application successfully, future registration won't impact your registration anymore.

I don't entirely sure how you did random shortcuts, but I am pretty confident that some combination will work. Otherwise, it should be a system issue rather than the library itself.
