Here’s how you might use PowerToys to remap your favorite (or least favorite!)

Microsoft recommends that youdownload PowerToys directly from GitHub.

You should grab the latest version — it’ll always be the one nearest to the top.

Click on the latest "x64" executable.

ARM-based processors are gradually becoming more common in PC, so it is possible your have one.

The other option is to install PowerToys from the Microsoft Store.

Just click “Install” and everything will be handled automatically.

Open up PowerToys, then click "Keyboard Manager."

If you want it’s possible for you to install PowerToys via a command line as well.

There are two choices: “Remap a Key” and “Remap a Shortcut.”

The names mostly speak for themselves.

Make sure the toggle is set to "On."

“Remap a Shortcut” is more useful in that regard.

That gives you a ton of flexibility and lets you work around almostany preexisting shortcutsthat might cause a conflict.

Leave “Target App” blank to make the remap system-wide.

An example mapping the "[" key to volume down and the "]" key to volume up.

From there, you’re able to map from one key to another easily.

Enter your desired shortcut, select what key, shortcut, or function you want it mapped to, and then select which application you want to use it with .

An example remapping. "Ctrl+Shift+T" has been mapped to the "Delete" function, but only in GIMP.
