Below is a list of a few popular application process names. This will result in a list of process names for all applications you currently have open. To find an application's process name, open PowerShell and enter the command get-process or open Command Prompt and enter the command tasklist. For example, Microsoft Edge is set as "msedge" (process name), not "Microsoft Edge" (application name). Keyboard Manager uses process-names (not application names) to target apps. If you prefer instead to set Ctrl+ F to search your email (rather than forward an email as set by default), you can remap the shortcut with "Outlook" set as your "Target app". Keyboard Manager enables you to remap shortcuts for only specific apps (rather than globally across Windows).įor example, in the Outlook email app the shortcut Ctrl+ E is set by default to search for an email. For example: pressing ⊞ Win+ ←+ Shift would result in Alt + Shift. The order of key press matters in this scenario as the action is executed during key-down, not key-up. Shortcut remapping will be maintained even if the remapped key is used inside another shortcut. It is possible to remap a shortcut (key combination) to a single key press by selecting Remap a shortcut in PowerToys Settings.įor example, to replace the shortcut ⊞ Win+ ← (left arrow) with a single key press Alt: Shortcut: Shortcuts cannot be longer than four keys.Shortcuts must end with an action key (all non-modifier keys): A, B, C, 1, 2, 3, etc.Shortcuts must begin with a modifier key: Ctrl, Shift, Alt, or ⊞ Win.These rules only apply to the "Shortcut" column. There are a few rules to follow when remapping shortcuts. To remap that shortcut to use the Alt key, rather than the Ctrl key: Physical Shortcut: Select the new shortcut value to assign in the “Mapped To” column.įor example, the shortcut Ctrl+ C copies selected text. Once a new remap row appears, select the input keys whose output you want to change in the “Physical Shortcut” column. When first launched, no predefined mappings will be displayed. To remap a shortcut key combination, like Ctrl+ C, select Remap a shortcut to launch the Remap Shortcuts settings window. Pressing the C key first will execute C + ⊞ Win + left arrow. Pressing the Ctrl key will first execute ⊞ Win + left arrow. For example, pressing Ctrl+ C would result as ⊞ Win + left arrow + C. Key remapping will be maintained even if the remapped key is used inside another shortcut. To remap a key to a shortcut (combination of keys), enter the shortcut key combination in the "Mapped To" column.įor example, to press the Ctrl key and have it result in ⊞ Win + ← (left arrow): Physical Key: To swap key positions between the A and B keys, add another remapping with: Physical Key: Select the new key value to assign in the “Mapped To” column.įor example, to press A and have B appear: Physical Key: Once a new remap row appears, select the input key whose output you want to change in the “Physical Key” column. To remap a key, changing it to a new value, launch the Remap Keyboard settings window with Remap a Key. Launch the Remap Shortcuts settings window by selecting Remap a shortcut.

Launch the Remap Keys settings window by selecting Remap a key.Inside PowerToys Settings, on the Keyboard Manager tab, you will see options to: To create mappings with Keyboard Manager, open the PowerToys Settings. Game Bar can be disabled in Windows Settings. ⊞ Win+ G often opens the Xbox Game Bar, even when reassigned.
So mapping it against the backspace key, for instance, and pressing and holding will only delete a single character.
