KEYWIN Getting Started

Introduction
Welcome to KEYWIN
We are confident that KEYWIN will greatly increase your productivity.
Have you ever thought about how much time you are WASTING by not regularly using keyboard
shortcuts on your computer? The result about how much time you are likely wasting per year will blow
your mind. Most people lose an average of 2 seconds per minute of work by switching back & forth from
their mouse instead of using the analogous keyboard shortcut. Learning just this single shortcut could
save you several cumulative hours over the course of a year. Time you can save is approximately

8 Days per Year


Thats right. If your job requires you to be working on a computer throughout each standard 8-hour
workday, then using keyboard shortcuts can save you 8 entire workdays every year. This is equal to
3.3% of your total productivity. Heres a quick derivation of this figure:

While above fact is about using general keyboard shortcuts, KEYWIN let you define your own keyboard
shortcuts to perform activities for which perhaps no keyboard shortcuts are defined yet (e.g. adjusting
volume, launching applications, files, folders, website and many more) and thereby let you save more time and
increase your productivity.

What is KEYWIN?
KEYWIN is productivity tool and keyboard utility software (made for Windows OS) with an ability to
program various actions to keyboard keys and execute these when pressed in combination with
Windows Key , thereby saving your time on performing complicated and/or repetitive actions.
E.g. you can open Calculator by pressing +C instantly or open Google website just by pressing + G.

KEYWIN also offers outstanding features like Virtual Desktops, On-Demand and Automatic Power Saving
feature, well organized screenshots folder and an Innovative Battery Gauge for battery operated
computers like laptops, notebooks.

Why you should use KEYWIN?


There is always a need to instantly open frequently used applications, files, folders and websites and to
perform repetitive tasks like adjusting volume of speakers, taking screenshots, turning off monitor when
stepping away or even sending same reply (with attachments) to number of recipients.
What if you get a power to assign these complicated / repetitive actions to your keyboard keys only
once and perform these again and again or whenever you want just by pressing a key?
KEYWIN gives you that exact power. So next time you may
- open MS Excel by pressing +X and MS Word by pressing +W,
- increase and decrease speaker volume by pressing +} and +{ and Mute by pressing +Backspace.

Here are some cool features in KEYWIN

More Desktops in one computer


With many open applications taskbar usually get overcrowded. KEYWIN offers 3 virtual desktops in
addition to the default real desktop and thereby you have total 4 desktops with choice to open different
application in different desktops.

Secure your workstation and go GREEN


KEYWIN has an ability to turn off the monitor (one of most power consuming resource) of computer in
few seconds after workstation locked and/or after screensaver started. We recommend you to enable
these options if you wish to contribute to energy saving and thereby to the GREEN environment.
Note: This option offers a good battery time for battery operated computers like laptops, notebooks.

Take Rapid Screenshots


With KEYWIN you can take rapid screenshots of your screens (multiple monitors) and automatically save
these to an organized folder with date and time. So you just need to press a key to take screenshot
without worrying about it getting saved. Very useful to record on screen shared contents via online
meetings.

Battery Gauge (for laptops and notebooks)


KEYWINs Innovative Battery Gauge, displayed at bottom of the screen below task bar, let you monitor
ongoing state of your battery. Thus you can hide traditional battery status icons from taskbar and make
more room for open applications.

Make window topmost


With KEYWIN you can make any window topmost i.e. make window float on top of other windows. E.g.
you will always like the Calculator or Stock Market Meter to be always top of other windows.
*One topmost window will go behind or come forth to another topmost window.

Make window Transparent


This feature can let you make your window transparent and see through it. Useful when you prefer to
look through certain window all the time.
These are yet more features ahead, read rest of this manual for more information.

Save Transparency Settings


KEYWIN has ability to change the Transparency of windows and it also
can remember it for future. Check this option to save transparency
setting for window, next time whenever you launch that particular
window individual transparency setting is applied automatically.
Calculator made Transparent

Assume a situation when you need to refer one window and


with that reference need to work in other window. So rather
toggling between windows you can just increase
transparency of the topmost window.
In this example we increased the Transparency of Calculator
application. You can look through Calculator.
If Save Transparency Settings is checked. Next time
Calculator will open with its own transparency level.
Different windows can have different transparency levels
(i.e. more or less transparent) as assigned by user and
KEYWIN can remember it for you.

Save Top Position Window Settings

Calculator made Topmost

KEYWIN has ability to make window topmost among rest of


the windows. Check this option to save Top Position setting
for window, next time whenever you launch that particular
window Top Position setting is applied automatically.
In this example we made Calculator Topmost window. As
an evidence you can see calculater floating on top of start
menu bar and also while Document options selected in
previouse windows explorer.
If Save Top Position Window Settings is checked. Next time
Calculator will open as topmost window.
You can set window to topmost as many as you can and KEYWIN can remember it for you. This setting is
useful when you want certain windows to float on top of all windows. E.g Chat window.
Note :
Topmost and Transparency settings can be applied together to a window. e.g. Calculator in above case.

Turn Off monitor on workstation lock


This is GREEN* feature of KEYWIN. Why we call it GREEN
because it saves power. Check this option, if you want KEYWIN
to turn off monitory (only) after you lock your workstation.

Turn Off monitor on screensaver start


This is another GREEN* feature of KEYWIN. Check this option if
you want KEYWIN to turn off monitory (only) after screensaver
starts.
We recommend you to use these GREEN options and
contribute to the green environment by saving power.
*GREEN because it helps to save the power by turning off monitor automatically which is one of the
biggest power consuming unit of any computer system and for laptops saving power increases the
battery backup time.
So with KEYWIN next time whenever you lock your workstation you are saving some power and
contributing towards the green environment.

Enable Virtual Desktop (MORE DESKTOPs)


KEYWIN offers an excellent feature of virtual desktops i.e. your real desktop PLUS 3 more Virtual
Desktops. Benefit of Virtual Desktops is you can run different applications in different desktops e.g. you
can open work related windows in one desktop and social networking window in other desktop. You can
switch between these desktops with key-press or selecting the desktop of choice from KEYWIN Menu.
Thus Virtual desktop offers an ability to segregate windows among desktops, ensure privacy of your
work to some extent and optimum use of your computer system.
Gather windows from all desktops by selecting Gather Desktops option in KEYWIN menu.
Lets understand with example (You may assign Virtual Desktop commands to keys of your choice.)
1.

By default you are into Real Desktop. Right click on


KEYWIN icon to confirm. Open MS Word.

2.

Right click on KEYWIN icon and select Virtual Desktop 2 from


menu. Open MS Excel. You can see that MS Word running in
Real Desktop is not visible (it is still running).

Using Battery Gauge


KEYWIN has innovative visual battery gauge which can be found out right below the task bar, a thin strip
having gradient of RED, YELLOW and GREEN color. Width of gauge represents the percentage battery
charged. i.e. when width of battery gauge is same as that of screen, battery is 100% charged.
Gradient color in gauge describes the urgency of charging your computer.
Until gauge ends with GREEN color you are good without charging. Refer above image.

When gauge ends with YELLOW color, you still have sufficient battery and it is good to charge.
Refer above image

When gauge ends with RED color, you are very close to drain out your battery anytime and you must
charge immediately. Refer above image

NOTE: Battery gauge will be shown automatically for battery operated computers like notebook /
laptop. However it will not be shown for desktop computers which do not have internal battery.
