AutoHotkey VS PuloversMacroCreator

Honestly, it's a bit silly of autohotkey.com to have such strict protections, especially on its downloads. You may be able to workaround by using the github releases instead which are far less restrictive.

Other have given great examples, but i thought id also throw in Autohotkey, Incase anyone wants something that does this in every application (or the applications of your choice)

sharpkeys lets you remap any keys on windows without running a 3rd party program like autohotkey

Yes: Set up sbz-switch commands and use AutoHotkey to trigger them.
