Next, press Ctrl+WinKey+1 and see how all of your open Windows will close for you. In a DOS console type the name of the script, then hit Enter. Here's the source code, including the website where I got it. This means ^ Ctrl key, # Windows key (WinKey) and 1, the number 1 key. ![]() In fact, you can add any application shortcut to this. What counts in the first line of the script is what's left to ::, in this case ^#1 and that's called the Hotkey .

I haven't had a chance to dig into AutoHotKey, though I installed it already, but if you know the basics of AutoHotKey ( ) you can just copy scripts from the web, including from here, the SDL translation productivity dedicated to this tool ( ).

These scripts can do anything from remapping keys on your keyboard to creating complex macros. Well, thanks to an AutoHotKey script that I found on the web now I can have those windows closed for me. AutoHotkey is a free scripting language for Windows that allows you to automate tasks by creating scripts. At the end of a long day, having worked on translation projects, juggled e-mails, opened documents, browsers, folder explorers, control panel, players, etc. I may have up to 20 or more Windows open (luckily, Windows 10 is very good at multitasking) and closing them is kind of boring and time consuming.
