Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/issues/722

Operating Systems

Server: macOS Catalina 10.15.5

Client: Windows 10 Version1909 build 18363.778

Barrier Version

2.3.2 latest on both

Steps to reproduce bug

  1. Move to client win10, and try ctrl+A to select all text. This behaves as if I pressed winkey+A, showing the notifications bar on the side. I have made no changes to the keys or anything in settings.

Other info

  • When did the problem start to occur?
    Always.
  • Is there a way to work around it?
    No, I let Win10 be the server now, but sometimes I want the server to be the machine with priority, so it's not great.
  • Does this bug prevent you from using Barrier entirely?
    No

Please see if you can reproduce and fix. Thanks!

@phuein Does this issue still happen? I'm wondering if this could be related to the default modifier key layout being different on macOS. Is there any other modifier that works as ctrl?
