If you have ever tried to change the shortcuts in Windows, then you probably know that the only viable option is to install a third-party application for this purpose.

One such application is Key Manager, a useful piece of software that is designed to offer you the possibility to change or add Windows shortcuts, without having to go through the annoying process of manually changing them.

In plain words, the app improves the way you interact with your OS by allowing you to remap keys, combinations of keys and even combinations of keys and mouse buttons. In addition, you can remap key or button sequences and long presses.

Even the mouse wheel has not been left out, as Key Manager makes it possible for you to assign actions when rotating it.

Subsequent to its installation, the application is not of much help straight out-of-the-box. To take advantage of what this app has to offer, you are required to first define some custom keyboard shortcuts.

After a certain adjustment period, things seem to fall right into place and working with Key Manager becomes routine, yet novice users might find the app a bit counter-intuitive.

Defining actions, adding key combinations and folders for storing them is not what you would call difficult. The learning curve is not lean, and the app's interface does not do a lot to help in this situation, as it features buttons that are simply too small.

Nevertheless, some tips, a wizard setup feature or maybe a small tutorial at the beginning would have been of much use, especially for beginners.

There is no denying Key Mananger's usefulness and straight-up benefits, as it helps you expand the capabilities of the Windows OS installed on your computer. Regardless, a fair bit of documentation and possibly some trial and error operations are necessary before you might be able to get the best out of this app.
