I have a simple app coded with c# which captures pressed keys out of the form and also sends keys also outside the form. The app works well with windows7.

But when I tested it on windows 10 it couldn't capture or send keys if the app wasn't active (outside the form).

Why not share some code? – Patrick Hofman Nov 19 '15 at 13:30
@PatrickHofman All the code is about KeyHandler for capturing pressed keys and SendKeys.SendWait for sending keys – Feras Senjab Nov 19 '15 at 13:37
@FirasSy you need to show us – Paul Nov 19 '15 at 13:46
Seems like another SO post has reported a similar problem in Windows 10: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31846863/sending-key-strokes-with-c-sharp-in-win10-outside-of-app – Special Sauce Nov 19 '15 at 13:58
@SpecialSauce yes I've checked it.. it's the same problem.. but with no answer.. – Feras Senjab Nov 19 '15 at 14:01
@Paul the code is similar to the shared code in the link of Special Sauce's comment.. and it works very well on win7.. the problem only with win10 – Feras Senjab Nov 19 '15 at 14:04
