The actual download is on the Releases page.
An AutoHotkey-powered installer for Windows that configures which keys you want to press to adjust brightness, volume, and/or media controls (Play/Pause, Next track, Previous track).
Run the installer each time you want to re-map your keys. For function keys, just type "F" followed by the number (e.g., "F12") during installation. You can reference this list of special keys if needed.
A Windows Task is scheduled that runs BrightKeyMap.exe on logon of any user, which is a compiled executable of an .ahk AutoHotkey script. You can download and edit the .ahk from the repo.
Install your latest hardware drivers.
- Make sure your hardware actually supports OS-level brightness adjustments (typically portable PC's).
- If you have a desktop monitor, you probably need to adjust brightness using its physical buttons. Further brightness adjustments on desktop [and any other] monitors can be made with f.lux's
alt+PgUp/alt+PgDownhotkeys.
- If you have a desktop monitor, you probably need to adjust brightness using its physical buttons. Further brightness adjustments on desktop [and any other] monitors can be made with f.lux's
- Make sure you configured the Keys correctly during setup: Reference this list and make sure you did not duplicate mapped keys (i.e., Didn't map
F2to 2 functions, like both "Volume Up" and "Play/Pause" for example).
If this is potentially useful to anyone out there, I assume there's modifications and incompatibilities people would like tweaked, so email me or create GitHub Issues, or download the AutoHotkey script from the repo and edit it yourself.
