How to remap keyboard keys in Windows 10 and 11

There are a few different ways you can remap keys and shortcuts on Windows 11 (or 10), but I've found that using PowerToys is the quickest and easiest method, and in this guide, I'll show you how.

When you use your computer for gaming or work, you may sometimes need to reassign some keys and shortcuts to other keys or key combinations because it makes more sense or can improve productivity.

Regardless of the reason, Windows 11 doesn't include a feature to change the actions of keys or keyboard shortcuts, but you can use tools like Microsoft's PowerToys to remap virtually any key globally or for a specific application. The app also works for remapping keyboard shortcuts. You can even create remappings to launch apps, URIs, and web pages.
