We currently use Input Direct 1.4.2 and have been seeing explorer.exe and hanging events which looks to be caused be aggressive system-wide hooks by Input Director and it looks to be the main culprit.

When this happens in conjunction with some other applications that are less aggressive is results in a hang state for explorer.exe.

I checked the forum but this doesn't seem to have been raised before so just wondering if it is a known issue with earlier versions or not?

Just wondering if the latest version of Input Director might possibly help with this issue?

Hi Shane,

v1.4.2 is 11 versions behind the latest, so as a first step I would be downloading and upgrading to v2.4 to see if that fixes the issue.

Regs,

Shane.
