For Windows applications, if you do not have a shortcut to the program you must create one. For DOS programs, you can use a shortcut but it isn't necessary. Select the shortcut or DOS program and choose Properties. In a shortcut to a Windows program, click the Shortcut tab. In a DOS shortcut or program, click the Program tab.
Click in the field named "Shortcut key" to place the cursor within this field. Press the key combination you wish to use to open the program. Click Apply, then OK.
Restrictions: The key combination must be in the form of Ctrl + (some key) or Ctrl + Alt + (some key).
You can't use Esc, Tab, Spacebar, Enter, Print Screen, or Backspace in the key combination.
You can't use a key combination already reserved for Windows or another program. These restrictions can also be seen by right-clicking in the "Shortcut key" field and choosing "What's This?".
To remove a shortcut key, press just Ctrl when in the "Shortcut key" field. The field entry should change to "None". Click Apply, then OK.
To remove the hot key from a DOS program or shortcut, change the value
of the "Shortcut key" field to none. You then MUST COMPLETELY shut
down Windows 95, wait a bit, then restart your computer. Turning your
computer completely off works best, just pressing the reset button
doesn't work sometimes if it's done too quickly. Just restarting
Windows 95 doesn't work at all. |
