User Keybinds cannot overwrite default keybinds

[Kite-Bite]

i have checked the documentation and the recommended approach is copy the keybinding i want to change to userkeybinds and change it from bindd to unbindd

E.g.

unbind = $mainMod, Return, Open terminal, exec, $term

bindd = $mainMod, Return, Open terminal, exec, ghostty

this still launches $term(ex:kitty) along side ghostly

i tried it but the default key bind still works even after unbindd i have to comment it out in the default keybind to make mine work. Is there a way to fix this.

It's unbind Not unbindd

There are examples in the UserKeybinds.conf file

# E.g. 
# unbind = $mainMod, Return, Open terminal, exec, $term
# bindd = $mainMod, Return, Open terminal, exec, ghostty 
#
# unbind = $mainMod, E, file manager, exec, $files
# bindd = $mainMod, T, file manager, exec, $files

Also try hyprctl reload after you edit the UserKeybinds.conf file

Also what version of the dotfiles are you using ?
