# Troubleshooting
## AutoHotKey executable not found
If you try to start komorebi with AHK using `komorebic start --ahk`, and you have
not installed AHK using `scoop`, you'll probably receive an error:
```text
Error: could not find autohotkey, please make sure it is installed before using the --ahk flag
```
Depending on how AHK is installed the executable on your system may have a
different name. In order to account for this, you may set the `KOMOREBI_AHK_EXE`
environment variable in your
[PowerShell profile](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_profiles?view=powershell-7.4)
to match the name of the executable as it is found on your system.
After setting `KOMOREBI_AHK_EXE` make sure to either reload your PowerShell
profile or open a new terminal tab.

This appears to be fine -- _komorebi_ is aware of the device and associated
window handles.

Simply turning the monitor off is not enough to reproduce the problem; you must
let Windows turn off the display itself.

We can see the _komorebi_ state is no longer associated with the previous
device: `null`, suggesting an issue when the display resumes from a suspended
state.
