I love AutoHotkey, it basically gave me my start in this career and still makes me occasional commissions to this day. My current "Dave's Utilities" AHK is rather lean compared to times gone by, but I have these "essential" functions always a keypress away on my Win11 installation:
- ctrl+alt c / n / s for calc / notepad / snipping tool
- toggle "always on top"
- send to "other" monitor (I have a 2 monitor side-by-side setup)
- turn a Youtube "shorts" url in to it's regular Youtube page "watch" version via URL manipulation
- remap ctrl+shift+c to do nothing, instead of very slowly opening Chrome dev tools when I miss ctrl+shift+v "paste as values" in my huge Google spreadsheet
There is a native Windows shortcut for Send window to next/previous monitor: Win + Shift + Right/Left arrows.
(Windows recently got bunch of keyboard shortcuts, some overridable, some not. Sometimes you can discover them only with your AHK disabled, since you might have overriden them in the past...)
