It would be good if there was a method to set another hotkey and best if you could record it

@mroach Windows+Z on Windows 11 it's a dedicated hotkey to display the Snap Layouts, so the app isn't working.

hi
you can use Microsoft PowerToys to disable or remap the Windows + Z shortcut in Windows 11. PowerToys includes a Keyboard Manager feature that allows you to remap keys and shortcuts, making it possible to block or change the behavior of the Windows + Z combination. Here's how to do it:

Steps to Remap or Disable Windows + Z with PowerToys:
Download and Install PowerToys:

If you haven't installed PowerToys yet, you can download it from GitHub.
Open PowerToys:

Once installed, open PowerToys by searching for it in the Start Menu.
Enable Keyboard Manager:

In the PowerToys window, go to the Keyboard Manager section (listed in the left pane).
Toggle Enable Keyboard Manager to the On position if it's not already enabled.
Remap Shortcut:

Click on Remap a shortcut.
In the window that pops up, click on + Add to create a new shortcut remap.
Set Up the Remap:

Original Shortcut:
Click inside the "Shortcut" field and press Windows + Z.
Mapped To:
You can either map it to None (disable the shortcut), or map it to a different action if desired.
To disable it, click on the dropdown next to "Mapped To" and select None from the list.
Save the Remap:

Click OK to confirm the changes and then close the PowerToys window.
Now, Windows + Z will no longer trigger the Snap Layouts or any other action, as it's either disabled or remapped to something else of your choosing.
