Area(s) with issue?
Quick Accent
Steps to reproduce
- In settings, set the activation key to include Space
- Lock your Windows session
- Press Space (I usually do that to bring up the prompt for PIN code)
- Notice that Space didn't have any effect (that's already an anomaly), so press another key instead, or click with your mouse
- Do whatever is necessary to unlock (enter PIN or password, etc.)
✔️ Expected Behavior
- Space should work as usual in the lock screen
- The quick accent bar should not appear and stay stuck when unlocking the session after having pressed Space in the lock screen
❌ Actual Behavior
Once the session is unlocked, you will notice that the quick accent bar appears and stays stuck, the only way I found to remove it is to disable (temporarily) the feature in settings.
