In case you'd like ViEmu not to consider some of the standard keys for clash detection, you can edit the list of keys scanned for clashing purposes. For example, if you want to leave Ctrl-F alone, you can remove the 'F' from the list, and click on 'Apply' to save the setting and rescan the current keybindings. If ViEmu previously removed the Ctrl-F keybinding and you want to restore it, the simplest sequenced of steps is:

1. Remove the offending key from the list of scanned keys
2. Click on 'Apply' to save the setting
3. Click on the 'Restore' button to restore the original keybindings
4. Now, the previously offending keybinding won't appear in the list on the right as it is no longer considered
5. Finally, click on the 'Save and Remove' button to remove these keybindings and remember them for later restoring

The 'Default' button resets the list to its default value ("RFBDUWTQEYOINP]"), and the 'All' button sets it to the full list, that is, the default ones plus 'V' and 'C'. The new setting is applied as soon as any of these buttons is pressed.

One limitation of the automatic management is that a set of keybindings for a command, which may include more than one combination, is managed as a single entity, and restored/removed as a whole. This is excessive for commands which have several keybindings, only one of which may clash - all of the assignments will be removed and restored as a whole.
