Global Activation Hotkey not working

Global Activation Hotkey not working
So I've used WinEQ before on my other laptop, but I can't get the hotkeys to work on this one.
For example, I have set:
1st Profile Global Activation Hotkey = DELETE
~I've tried setting it in the profile "Global Activation Hotkey = DELETE" or leaving that on AUTO and setting it in the Hotkeys section.
~My delete key is not a part of the numpad or a laptop function key.
~I've tried with numlock, capslock, and scroll lock on/off. I turned off all the other programs running in the background to the extent i can.
~I can't seem to disable my touchpad software.
Did I just miss something stupid? Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks!

i found this topic, which seems to be a similar issue? But i have not found a workable solution.

I'd ideally like to find 5 keys that work on the right side of my keyboard so i can switch back and forth. Preferably all next to each other & in order so I can keep track of which is which.
Wasn't sure this stuff was relevant but I guess I'll just add it anyways

Is there some way to determine what the key is registering as to WinEQ? The buttons work in everything else... windows functions, games, etc.
Thanks

Global Activation Hotkeys are implemented as Windows Hotkeys. Windows decides what keys are allowed, and will also reject any key already registered as a Windows Hotkey (or that would interfere with your general use of your PC).
Your list of buttons looks like a list of buttons with special meanings that are probably reserved by Windows so that -- for example -- programs cannot block your ability to use the Delete key by registering it as a global hotkey.
F12 is a special case, Microsoft documents this button as being reserved for debuggers.

Your touchpad software is not related to these hotkeys but if you want to disable your touchpad, my suggestion is to go into the touchpad properties and find the option that disables it automatically when a USB mouse is plugged in. Best touchpad setting ever~I can't seem to disable my touchpad software.

Ahh thank you for the response!
It's just so weird I was able to bind these keys on my other laptop.
And btw Thanks for your work & thanks for your help! The program is otherwise such a great tool and i have enjoyed boxing with it immensely.
So is there a workaround for this? Do I need to unbind it from a windows hotkey? Or just nothing i can do here?Global Activation Hotkeys are implemented as Windows Hotkeys.

Is your other laptop using a different version of Windows?So is there a workaround for this? Do I need to unbind it from a windows hotkey? Or just nothing i can do here?

Most of your list does not seem to be blocked by my Windows (I am able to register most of them as a Hotkey, though a few of your listed keys may not be recognized with those given names.) so it is entirely possible that some software you're running has registered it. To unregister a global Hotkey you must know the software that registered it AND an internal ID number that software used to register it -- it is generally going to be easier just to shut down that software.
I guess I can't rule out that it could be your touchpad software, but I would suspect something else.
You want 5 keys on the right side of your keyboard, are you already using the numpad for something? num 7, num 8, num 9, num 4, num 5, num 6, num 1, num 2, num 3 all work in my testing, if you have num lock on.
Nope, it was win10 also. Yeah, it's weird!Is your other laptop using a different version of Windows?
Yeah, unfortunately this laptop is a bit smaller. It doesn't have the full numpad.You want 5 keys on the right side of your keyboard, are you already using the numpad for something? num 7, num 8, num 9, num 4, num 5, num 6, num 1, num 2, num 3 all work in my testing, if you have num lock on.
Ok so I just disabled all of that too because I rarely/never use the touchpad anyway. only thing even running is windows defender:Most of your list does not seem to be blocked by my Windows (I am able to register most of them as a Hotkey, though a few of your listed keys may not be recognized with those given names.) so it is entirely possible that some software you're running has registered it.

Now here's the kicker: Sys Req works with EQ1, but I went ahead and installed EQ2, and it doesn't work there. My Sys Req key picks up within EQ2 as Print Screen, but even when I disabled that function, the Sys Req key still doesn't work to switch tabs.

Update:
So I found an option in my graphics card tray to "turn off hotkeys" and I got super excited thinking I had found it, but that did nothing. lol But it makes me wonder if there is some hidden laptop hotkey menu somewhere lurking in the depths of my windows.
EQ1 ~ the side hotkeys & f12 still don't work.
EQ2 ~ I just tried making sure both the 1st and 2nd profile had all the same settings. I turned off patching for the 2nd profile, because I noticed that if it started from the patcher the window title didn't match what I had specified. Lo and behold, this fixed it!!! Delete & Sys Req now both work for EQ2.
EQ1 all profiles have the patcher off, so I guess this win isn't exactly transferrable. But it's interesting.

So I got it working!!!
with wineq2.0 and autohotkey working in conjunction, which is probably not the most efficient thing to do but it seems to be working so far.
1. I named the windows in wineq "EQ#1" giving each window a consecutive number 1-5
2. script in ahk:
Delete::
WinActivate, EQ #1
Return
Home::
WinActivate, EQ #2
Return
End::
WinActivate, EQ #3
Return
PgUp::
WinActivate, EQ #4
Return
PgDn::
WinActivate, EQ #5
Return
^Escape::
ExitApp
Return
Thanks for all the help!
