HotKeyz allows you to define system hotkeys like "WIN+F" for a wide variety of actions from executing applications to a long list of system actions. By default, it features settings for minimizing, maximizing, restoring, or closing the active window. You can launch your e-mail window to compose a new email, control WinAmp-compatible players without opening the main window, or paste pre-defined text, special characters, or the current date and time.

System functions include opening and closing your CD or DVD ROM drive, power off, shutdown, logoff or rebooting. Start your screen saver, hide/unhide your desktop, taskbar, and more.

It is a shame that HotKeyz has been discontinued without being made open-source. I still like it very much and still use it every day- it is very easy to configure. HotKeyz still works fine on Windows 8.

v2.8.3.0

Don't like mess with programming much then use HotKeyz as it's much easier than AutoHotKey but if you want more powerful ways of handling not only shortcuts, but also the Windows themselves and a bunch of other things, use AutoHotkey.

HotKeyz: Very Easy and Simple.
AutoHotKey: Steeper curve but more powerful and flexible.

What a great program. Takes about 20 mb.ram, but it's well worth it.
