Hi Joe,
Well, I found it. Apparently, alt-3 was set as a global hot key to read
Window 3. So, in the Winamp set file, I undefined that hot key, and now
my alt-3 for reading my file info is restored.
Your suggestion of using the bypass key gave me the clue to find the problem
and solve it.
Thanks again and have a good weekend.
Evan

Hello Evan,
At least it's a work arround, although not ideal.
Might help to re-install the default set files perhapse.
Anyway, have a fine weekend.

Hi Joe,
Thanks very much.
That did the trick, although I didn't used to have to do that.
I had to reboot my system yesterday after it had (apparently) been in sleep
mode for too long, and my Window Eyes settings were bolloksed up. I've had
to restore them manually and it appears that something is still not right
with them.
But at least now I don't have to go into the menus to get alt-3 to work, and
I can worry about how to fix my Window Eyes so as to get rid of having to
use the bypass key at some point.
Thanks again.
Evan

Thanks.

Nope, I guess I should have mentioned that I was in the Winamp main window
when I was trying to use it.
But I just checked again and it doesn't work even when I'm in the Winamp
main window.

Make sure that your Winamp main window is open by using the keystroke Alt+W
or just Control+Tab to it while Winamp has focus then try it.

Subject: Winamp alt-3 Key Not Working
I don’t know how, but for some reason, the alt-3 key in my Winamp has
stopped working. I know it worked until very recently, because I use it
fairly often to edit the tags of files I download. But it doesn’t work now.
I can still go into the menu, and it does still say that I can use alt-3 to
view the file info, but alt-3 doesn’t do anything now.
Does anyone here know how I can get it back?
Thanks very much.
Evan
