Can't unbind key combination

[NewbieHammer]

Hi there.

I followed the OP from here and it worked. I was able to map Ctrl+H to Delete.

However, i cannot find a way to reverse this.

I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling Hammerspoon, i also removed the Accessibility permission, many reboots and the Ctrl+H still triggers a delete.

After a reinstall of Hammerspoon, i ran the example from the link pasted above, but this time changed it to simulate a Space key instead of Delete. This worked, but after uninstalling Hammerspoon it went straight back to Ctrl+H=Delete.

Any ideas ?

Hey

Presumably you pasted that config into your ~/.hammerspoon/init.lua file? If you want to remove the remaps, you would remove it from that file. 

Cheers,

Hey,

Thanks for the answer.

You are correct, i pasted that into init.lua. However that file no longer exists on my disk.

So not sure where it's getting the key mapping from.

It seems that by default MacOS has Ctrl+H as delete :facepalm:

Thanks for the help !
