Cheat Engine 6.5 causes GetAsyncKeyState to always return 0 in my hack programs (written in C and masm (Microsoft Macro Assembly)) while I have the focus on one of the Cheat Engine windows. Why?

I wrote tiny program in masm that waits for the user to press Ctrl+C (using GetAsyncKeyState) to open the clipboard and copy it's data and information to some local variables on stack and some global variables on data segment/section, but I press Ctrl+C when my focus is on one the Cheat Engine windows with the title "Changed Addresses". The program is not working as expected, because I realize that GetAsyncKeyState always returns 0 when my focus is on one of the Cheat Engine windows. This is not good. I want GetAsyncKeyState to work always properly, no matter in what state my computer and the operating system is at.

What solution exists to this annoying problem? I have no idea. I need help and advice.

Best Regards and Thanks in advance
