I have been able to remap the CapsLock key (3A) to the Left Shift key (2A) by adding the binary value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout\Scancode Map
to the registry with a value of:
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
02 00 00 00 2A 00 3A 00
00 00 00 00
How can I modify this value so that the key remaps to a multiple-key combination, for example Alt-Shift?
sorry for reviving this old question, but I want to do a similar thing. I want to bind AltGr + esdf to the arrow keys. In the windows keyboard layout creator these kind of key combinations can be bound, but only to characters it seems. I was wondering if the scancode could be remapped in the registry, as a workaround. i don't want to install Autohotkey on my company computer but i can install custom keyboard layout drivers and add registry entries, so it would be awesome if it would be possible. – Nisse – 2017-05-12T05:47:46.430
2I thought Keyboard Layout could only be used to map one key to another one. Is there any restriction from using third party apps? AutoIt or AutoHotKey would be perfect for this – Martheen Cahya Paulo – 2011-08-09T05:00:13.910
Thanks. I can definitely do this with AutoHotKey, however I was hoping that I could do it in the registry so that I wouldn't have another process running. If this can't be done in the registry, then I guess that's my answer. – Paul Williams – 2011-08-09T05:23:42.180
AutoHotKey is my third party app of choice for this sort of thing. – Windos – 2011-08-09T05:26:15.397
