Hi,

First off, thanks for this awesome app. I've used synergy in the past, and Input Director has been considerably easier to set up and less flakey so far.

Bug report: In a client system, the Windows 11 emoji menu (Win+.) doesn't accept keyboard input, not even if you click on the search textbox (the mouse works just fine). In contrast, the Windows 10 emoji menu does work fine in client systems.

Best regards

I second this, Win + . activates the emoji menu in Windows 11 but does not accept any keyboard input even after clicking in the search textbox. Please take a look at this bug when you have a chance! 🙏🏾

Hi,

It's Windows itself that's ignore the simulated keystrokes injected by Input Director. There's not much I can do about this at this stage.
