I'm a dev, I even kind of know rust. Having some problems with this I don't have time to dig into right now but I'd like to potentially use this as an OSINT OCR tool. Think of things like instantly interpreting foreign languages in images, or while google street viewing sort of thing. One immediate issue is that if a gametranslate.exe hangs or isn't closed Desktop mode cause a "crash" when it's really just not able to spin up another instance of the process- this isn't easily seen by an enduser and you'll want to bubble that up. Really interesting project, I'll be following along and hopefully when I get time to play with it more dive in and potentially contribute. Nice work.

Right now I can't get it to do any desktop translations which is the only thing I tested, but I also have a temperamental 4090 rtx and desktop with the usual engineer trash installed so who knows, it could be me, or win 11, idk. I'll get back to it. I don't see the debugger pulling any hotkey presses and either nothing happens or it crashes (usually because i need to kill one of the processes that spawned and sits idle). 

Hi there mate,

That would be a cool use of the app for sure! Just keep in mind that the app does not at the moment have the features to enable translating everything on the screen and place the translated text in the exact captured spot etcetera. I have a 'working' solution for this on the dev side but not nearly good enough yet that I'd release it to the end user.

About the crash, I saw your crash log (unless someone else uses a 4090 lol), and I've seen others get the same crash. I have not been able to reproduce it whatsoever. Struggling to fully understand your explanation too. Could you please elaborate on how to reproduce the crash?

The debugger does not report any keypresses, but I should definitely add that.. If you could send me the entire debug_tool.log file with debug level 5 that'd be greatly appreciated.
