Essential Scripts for Mac users stuck on Windows
- Latest Version of AutoHotKey v1.x (not tested on v2 beta) with UI Access installed
For those who use Mac keyboards (where the ⌘ key shows up as the ⊞/Meta key on PCs), use the Mac.ahk file.
For those with standard PC keyboards (where Alt/⌥ is the closest key to the space bar), use the Mac but PC.ahk file.
Once AutoHotKey is installed, simply launch the script and it will instantly take affect.
The Mac.ahk file disables the ability to lock your workstation due to Windows not giving up the ⊞ + L shortcut to map ⌘ + L to ⌃ + L.
To disable this functionality (and thus disabling using ⌘ + L), comment this line out.
In order to control programs running as Administrator, this script uses AutoHotKey's UI Access feature. This must be enabled when installing AutoHotKey.
To disable this functionality (and thus disable controlling programs running as Administrator), comment these lines out.
Simply create a shortcut for the script and move this shortcut to %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup.
