How can I determine which process owns a hotkey in Windows?

Some of my global shortcuts stopped working, and I cannot figure out why. I suspect that there is some program that captures these shortcuts, but I don't know how to figure out which one is it (if any). Using windows7rc.

Maybe you'll have some luck with Deep System Explorer. They list Hotkeys in the features they support.

I couldn't run it on my Windows 7 64-bits after install (driver error), not sure wich version (32 or 64 bits) of 7 you're using.

Another one, HotKey Commander, is listed in this thread at Sysinternals.

  • Thank you. Deep System Explorer seems to be able to get this information. I will try it on the system where I see the problem. – Peter Štibraný Oct 19 '09 at 12:43

    I installed and openend Hotkey Commander. It opened _all_ programs I have on my computer, which obviously made it crash and led me to believe that that is shady software. – JBSnorro Jun 24 '18 at 09:36
  • Hotkey Commander/Explorer is just badly coded. It scans for every possible shortcut, and actually executes each of them in doing so. – vctls Apr 01 '19 at 08:28

Seems to be tricky. Found Active Hotkeys which will tell you if a hotkey has been assigned. This led to his Stack Overflow question which has been asked by the developer. Not sure I understand the answers, but good luck in there!
