    Hello I've been using MSI Afterburner for a while now. I like to monitor my GPU and CPU while in-game with the overlay. If it gets in the way I like to toggle it off. Theres a hotkey for toggling it off. I use Ctrl+Alt+O more than half the time though it doesn't toggle off.

    Secondly I got a second monitor so I can't really use Print Screen any more since it also captures the second monitor and I have to crop it out and everything. So I decided to try and use the afterburner's built in screenshot capture. However it doesn't work. Like it's not registering the hotkey no matter what I set it too.

    Can any one help me with this?

    Click the "I" icon at the top of the AB gui and then scroll down to active 3d processes. Is there anything listed?

    Alright. You need to open rtss and add that to the exception list. Then set application detection level to none. That should do it. Please report back and let me know.

    Thanks. Good news I'm pretty sure it fixed it. Bad news I accidently left the hotkey to I. So now I have about 536 screenshots. Or 900MB worth lol.
