Keyboard keys can also be remapped or disabled, such that pressing Ctrl+ M, for example, might result in the active window receiving an em dash -, or nothing at all. These commands can be triggered by a hotkey, such as a script that would open an internet browser whenever the user presses Ctrl+ Alt+ I on the keyboard. AutoHotkey scripts can also assign, retrieve, and manipulate variables, run loops and manipulate windows, files, and folders.

AutoHotkey scripts can be used to launch programs, open documents, and emulate keystrokes or mouse clicks and movements.
