Describe the problem

The issue was that the core parts assumed another default setting than the UI.

As said somewhere else on being the new default, that still means for old users that they have to change the preset as pressing OK in the main settings may have written EnableWin32kHooks=n in which case there is a preset and the default is irrelevant.

That is how I interpret it too, however I've put a clean installation of 1.0.4 on a few machines this morning, as well as the Windows 11 machine yesterday, and in all cases the ini said "EnableWin32kHooks=n" and the three options that relate in the Global settings were all unticked out-of-the-box. (By clean installation I mean when I uninstalled the previous versions (a mixture of 0.9.8d and 1.0.3) I opted to remove all configuration files in the uninstaller. I couldn't find any remnants anywhere... unless there's something kept in the registry that I couldn't see). My sandboxes and preferences were not retained on installing 1.0.4, so it seemed pretty "clean" to me.

There is a bug in the plus UI it threads the option still as off by default, and saving global settings causes the n value to be saved
