I unticked something I shouldn't have in the key-board shortcut section and now can't stop or escape. :(
I also don't have those buttons on the skin I'm using so no help there.
Is there a file I can edit?
Thanks!
Just go back into admin and keystrokes and re enable the keystroke. Unless I am missing something?
That's the problem.....no escape.
I cannot see how escape is not working but I shall say ok. I would do the following
1) Move the skin that was loading as default outside of the skins directory
Start the program again so that it defaults to what ever is there and try that. I don't even think that keystrokes has anything to do with the escape key as that is hard coded I think. Screenshots and some knowledge of what you are working on would be helpful.

What skin are you using and have you modified it.
Under etouch folder there is a key.dat or something erase it and restart the escape should work...i think

Erased it, no change.

Using SxxLxxS_PNG_V9.0.04 (1024x768). Removed it so they default would work and still no good.
While trying to set up the keyboard shortcuts I unticked the top 2 things. Forgot what they were called.
Ok changing my original comment that they don't matter, but they do.
With sxxlxx you should have more options in the bottom right and then you should see setup.
I just done this quick video for you

Hope it helps
Already removed More Options & Set Up, but thanks for the vid.
Easy solution would be to download slxxlxx again from the skin section and then put that into the directory so that it sees it as your version and then do it that way.

Tried that and didn't work.
Looks like a reinstall :(
Don't reinstall just yet. I am heading of to bed as 3am here, Barry will be online in 5 to 6 hours if you can wait that long. The replacing should work as it is the same folder name so it should load up that skin, unless you renamed the folder to something else such as
ORIGINAL SKIN
ORIGINAL SKIN 2
You would need to make sure that the previous version was named the same. If I had more time then I could have tried it but I don't think that you need a full install.
Just to recap:
At Key Shortcuts:
-Unticked Disable Keymapping and Disable Key Highlighing. Added "e" for escape as a keyboard shortcut but it didn't work.
-And of course now ESC doesn't work.
-I had previously turned off "More Options" in settings so it no longer shows in skins.
-Deleted Keyboard.DAT, Replaced skin. Still no.
Apparently the Admin info is stored somewhere else.
The settings are stored in the registry, do a search for E-touch and you will find the settings there.
Tried registry search and this is all that came up...
I had a look at reg edit and I couldn't find anything for etouch so I just used touch, but the results wouldn't let me open anything. It might just be easier to reinstall instead of messing around, at least you are learning from your mistakes which is a good thing and it doesn't take that long to get back up and running with a library.
Re-installing will not help you will need to remove the registry settings.
But where are they?
Just go to reg edit click on find and type in touch now look for everything that says etouch and delete that file. Keep clicking on find next which I think is F3
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-3120697450-1144530165-1888049121-1000\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings\E-Touch 8
Just search on "E-Touch 8" and you will find the key, delete it and you will go back to the defaults or turn on the options button using it's key.
Turned "More Options" back on in the registry location you listed. :)
Thank you!
You should add an option in the installation that reads:
Would like to do a fresh install? (This would remove ALL settings)

I could add a switch so if you start it /i it loads the defaults rather than from the registry.
For most people, anything would be better than having to go into the registry. Not me, I live dangerously :P
Just to say on this, I am not sure how hard this would be but to have the esc key as a hard coded key to get to the menu system even if someone locks themselves such as Ballen did, just as a safe guard. You never know there might be another idiot out there that this happens too lol
See I knew that some idiot would do something stupid like this again, sadly had to me :(

Sorted god am I a genius, anyway if you do not know how to do this
1) Click on start menu (windows)
2) in the search box type CMD and press enter
3) Navigate to your etouch directory
4) Type in etouch9.exe /I
This will now restore your options.
