Why has this Hotkey Error Dialog appeared every time on my screen? What’s the problem? Who is using my application?

Failed to register the following global hotkeys. Maybe another application is already using them.

Maybe you did not save your Global Hotkeys correctly. This issue may occur if one of the instances below is happening:

– You have assigned 2 or more actions on the preferences of Global Hotkey and you assigned it to the same key.

– You are running two instances of the program.

– There might be another program or application that has the hot key settings, utility, or it might be a 3rd party plugin.

– You are using a multi media keyboard.
