Monitoring for specific Keystrokes in C#

I need to write a Windows application which monitors keystrokes regardless of focus. When it detects a particular keystroke (Ctrl + V, specifically), it needs to perform certain actions.

How can I monitor keystrokes in Windows from C# regardless of focus?

Solution

  • I am not fully understand your question, but If you would like to register global key regardless of your window focus you can use RegisterHotKey windows API.
