Code: Select all
; This AutoHotkey script is to Open, Restore or Minimize the desires Apps using the configured shortcuts key (hotkeys) you want.
; There are three functions you can use for this:
;
;
; a) OpenOrShowAppBasedOnExeName(AppAddress) //Useful for regular Window Apps
; b) OpenOrShowAppBasedOnWindowTitle(WindowTitleWord, AppAddress) //Specially useful for Chrome Apps and Chrome Shortcuts
; c) OpenOrShowAppBasedOnAppModelUserID(AppTitle, AppModelUserID) //Useful for Windows Store Apps (contained in the "shell:AppsFolder\")
; Additionally, pressing Alt + ` (key above Tab key) you can switch between open Windows of the same "type" and same App (.exe)
; The "type" checking is based on the App's Title convention that stipulates that the App name should be at the end of the Window title (Eg: New Document - Word )
