david vogel mHotkey.exe bewirkt nur die anzeige der gedrückten Taste auf der Tastatur, alles funktioniert nach dem Entfernen genau wie vorher. Wer auf den Lautstärkebalken verzichten kann, kann sie ohne Befürchtungen löschen.
mjm0715 This process seems to gradually take more Page File Usage without releasing it. It causes my sytem to go low on virtual memory until I use the TaskManager to kill it. It doesn't seem to make a difference with my keyboard..
