In Snagit capture, select Tools > Program Preferences > Hotkeys. Then, the second copy starts and discovers that all of the hotkeys have already been registered and an error occurs for each hotkey. The first copy of Snagit starts and registers the hotkeys. This occurs if you have two copies of Snagit starting in the Startup folder. When I start Snagit there are Hotkey conflicts with all of the Snagit Hotkeys. To change a hotkey from a profile, right-click the profile and choose Set Hotkey. The hotkey will show in the right of your profile name in green text. You must also check your profile list for any hotkeys that may be causing a conflict. To change the hotkeys, select Tools > Program Preferences > Hotkeys. Snagit's hotkeys can be user defined so you can choose another set of hotkeys. If another application has registered the same hotkey from what Snagit uses, Snagit will launch an error that a certain hotkey is already being used.Ĭommon programs that may override the Print Screen key from Snagit are Microsoft OneDrive and Dropbox. After that, no other application can use the same hotkey until the application is closed or unregistered. When an application is first opened, it will automatically register the hotkey that will be used with the operating system. When I start Snagit, I get errors about hotkey conflicts.
