Originally assigned to: @kics223w1 on GitHub.

Description

Steps to Reproduce

Open proxyman
Open notepad++ press F5 nothing happens
Close proxymand
inside notepad++ press F5 see a dialog open to Run.

Current Behavior

Proxyman is intercepting F5 key presses. Note that visual studio uses F5 but still doesn't prevent notepad++ from using F5 with that application is active. So Proxyman is not only using F5 but owning that key preventing other apps from using F5.

Expected Behavior

If proxyman is opened anyother application should be able to respond to the F5 keypress.

Environment

App version: 2.10.0
Windows/Linux version: Microsoft Windows 11 Enterprise, 10.0.22621 Build 22621

Before the release of 2.10.0, I discovered that users can press F5 to refresh the application. So I added the code to disable it. I didn't realize that it would affect the other applications. I'll revert this code and use another approach in the next release.

Thank god it's just a bug. I just started using Proxyman and noticed this behavior. I was looking through preferences to find key bindings so I could disable the hotkey in Proxyman, but to no avail. Looking forward for the next release with this fixed!
