I am accustomed to using the WinKey+E to open up Explorer but I recently installed SpeedCommander and I was wondering if it is possible to replace the behavior of Win+E to open up SpeedCommander instead of opening up the default Windows Explorer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the tip. But is there any other trick that does not involve loading up 1 mb program that just maps winkey+E to SpeedCommander? I'm leaning towards a 'hack' type solution. What really happens when you press that keyboard combination and is it possible to intercept it and replace the default behavior with another one.

Winkey will allow you to create more shortcuts with the windows key but I don't think it can override the default shortcuts.

You can remap a single key in the registry, but I don't know where you can remap the windows key + x shortcuts.

I've never used it but autohotkeys should work :
