How do I set ignore backspace for hotstrings?

I keep getting unwanted hotstrings, like for example I have mw making but if I type an m by mistake, and then erase it with BackSpace, and then type a w AHK kicks in, even though there was a BackSpace — how do I set it so that BackSpace will interrupt a hotstring?

This is unusual behaviour for AutoHotKey. One of my many hotstrings is :*:ahk::AutoHotKey if I press ahBackSpacekSpace I get ak as expected and not, as in your case AutoHotKey.

Could you show the initial lines and the hotstrings of the script and tell us wich OS and which AutoHotKey version you are using?

I do run AutoHotKey_L, but in the past I ran AutoHotKey and I never ran into your behaviour.
