I was defined a global hotkey (ctrl+space) for Play/Pause in VLC media player on Windows 7.

Until yesterday everything was OK, but today I see it doesn't work.

So I looked into settings of VLC. That hotkey was present. I tried to reassign it, but every time I press ctrl+space it is detected as ctrl+c! Restarted PC, but no luck.

Space itself is working.

Do I need to change my keyboard?

edit:

I plugged another keyboard. It's the same.

I also tried to assign this hotkey for shortcut of a file (.lnk) in it's properties dialog. Again it is detected as Ctrl+Alt+C.

This may be a hot key conflict problem, it is recommended that you download a hot key conflict detection software, such as Windows Hotkey Explorer or hotkey commander, it can display the currently occupied shortcut keys, and navigate to the relevant program, you can try to detect.

This is the hotkey commander tool that I use, you can refer to it.

  • Ah yes! Thank you. A long time ago I was installed Ochepyatka and configured Ctrl+Space for it. Recently I used it again and didn't notice it's yet running. Hotkey Commander is very useful.
