Is using additional software acceptable? – Daniel B – 2014-09-07T12:15:36.367

Yes, it's acceptable – onetrickpony – 2014-09-07T12:23:52.227

2This is not a duplicate because the OP wants to start the program on the first key press. Controlling foobar with the key comes after that. – Daniel B – 2014-09-09T17:34:41.320

I agree with Daniel. This is not a duplicate – nixda – 2015-07-26T10:54:50.727

@DanielB, nixda: How do you figure that this question isn't a duplicate?  The five-year-old question covers both aspects. – Scott – 2015-07-26T11:45:56.893

@Scott No, it doesn’t. Multimedia keys cannot be used in .lnk shortcuts and the play key doesn’t launch any program by default. The OP doesn’t want to launch it with some “Media Player” key or whatever, but the play key. – Daniel B – 2015-07-26T11:51:16.657

The key to Windows is outside of the standard 104-key ( or whatever is the standard ) subset. The solution to define the behavior of that key or any key outside of the standard sub-set is the same. – Ramhound – 2015-07-26T22:44:08.520
