Hi, I've been using an Elgato Stream Deck to trigger Monitor Profiles with F22, F23, F24 function keys for a few years now, and today when I tried to assign F21 as a hotkey for a new profile it wouldn't register. None of the function keys from F13+ are registering anymore when trying to set as a hotkey.
The F22-F24 hotkeys I made a long time ago have been working fine throughout all the DisplayFusion updates and still do to this day for triggering my monitor profiles, but I just realized that I can no longer register them as hotkeys anymore. Is there an explanation for this?

Here is a new log where I attempted to set the hotkey for a monitor profile to F21 using my Elgato stream deck, but didn't register. Also attached a screenshot showing it is configured the same as my other hotkeys that do work at triggering the monitor profiles I setup years ago. Thank you.

Looks like the log got replaced with the screenshot in my previous reply. Here's the log.

Is there an error appearing when you try to set the hotkey in DisplayFusion, or nothing is happening?
What might be happening here is Windows preventing DisplayFusion from receiving the virtual keypress from the Elgato software because DisplayFusion is running at a higher integrity level. If you exit the Elgato software, then run it as admin, does that make any difference?

Running the Elgato software as admin did the trick. The F21 key registered this time. Thank you guys for the support!
