In Windows 10, the Win+Shift+S shortcut/hotkey opens SnippingTool.exe, located in C:\Windows\System32. Is there a way to remap that shortcut to open a different executable? Ideally would do so without intercepting the keypress with a listener or AutoHotkey.
Can't seem to find a registry value for it.
If I change the name of SnippingTool.exe, pressing the shortcut will generate a window notice that SnippingTool.exe cannot be found. That same error appears if a shortcut named SnippingTool.exe is created and put in C:\Windows\System32 (and the original .exe removed).

Just overwrite snippingtool.exe with your executable. – Appleoddity – 2018-02-22T07:00:15.603
Unfortunately for my needs, I need to change the executable name. I actually want to run SnippingTool.exe, but have it be named something else. – Kroo – 2018-02-22T07:02:40.707
