Indeed, PowerToys Low level keyboard hooks recognize if a key has been changed by Keyboard Manager.
Where exactly are you trying to use the key? That's not clear.

I also noticed that when PowerToys is running as an administrator and I run a program through a keyboard shortcut, it always runs as administrator... I was looking for such an issue, but I didn't find it...but I'm sure that someone has already found this before me. Can you tell me, please? If not, I can create one...
