Easy Hot Key

Most often than not, hotkey or keyboard shortcuts provide a faster alternative to the mouse for completing certain tasks on a computer.

In spite of the fact that Windows does come with a comprehensive set of native hotkeys, when it comes to more advanced actions, you might want to turn towards a specialized app to further extend the shortcut capabilities of operating system.

With an almost self-explanatory name, Easy Hot Key is a simple yet efficient piece of software that provides you with extended lists of actions and an easy way to associate hotkeys for each of them.

The app undergoes a streamlined installation process and upon first launching it, you are met by a compact main window with a functional black-themed user interface.

Associating hotkeys for various actions is by no means a difficult task, as you only need to click the designated plus-shaped button, define the actual keyboard combination and select the action.

That said, you should know that the app enables you to set hotkeys for the following actions: close all windows, access the display settings window, control audio/video playback, hide individual windows, access Window's default date and time feature and even execute some command line entries.

Besides this, you can also open any browser via specified shortcuts, access its primary controls, open websites and even search the Internet by opening windows for Google, Amazon, eBay, Wikipedia and YouTube, just to name a few.

Easy Hot Key is also rather competent when it comes to basic computer tasks, opening the Control Panel, inserting texts, logging off and rebooting the computer, as well as for shutting down Windows.

Easy Hot Key is a simplistic app that aims to improve your workflow by providing you an user-friendly environment and a quick way to assign keyboard shortcuts for some simple or advanced actions.
