(partial) Loss of keyboard's functionality

[M0zzie]

This may not necessarily be 100% connected to the beta version but am really hoping someone would have come across this issue (and solved it?!) before.
I have recently noticed I lost some of keyboard's functionality... For instance Alt+F5 or Alt+F7 are a couple of combinations I can no longer use (haven't really checked all of them; those are ones that I most commonly use). I can't blame it on installing B12 although I first noticed it there. Tried uninstalling B12 (cleaning up registry) and reinstalling 9.22a to no avail.
To add to the confusion, F keys (i.e.: F2- F8 work perfectly)
Keyboard (hw) works perfectly (I can use those keys in other apps), within all other apps.
In terms of OS: WX x64 Pro 1909 patched to the latest (as of 2020/01/13)

Search for GeForce Experience in the forum, and you'll find a couple of threads with discussions about this and other software "stealing" such hotkeys.

Well, most likely it is not TC but a software for controlling your Graphic Card that is responible and "steals" certain keypresses

Yup. Cheers for the input! I just figured it out (about 20 minutes ago) going back to a backup that didn't have the GeForce rubbish installed!
Lesson learnt(!) IGNORE NVIDIA's driver update crap!
