REMAPPING CTRL+0 TO INSERT KEY

Method 1: Using AutoHotkey (Recommended)

This is the most flexible and user-friendly approach.

Step 1: Download and Install AutoHotkey

• Go to https://www.autohotkey.com/

• Download AutoHotkey v2 (or v1.1 if you prefer)

• Run the installer and follow the installation wizard

Step 2: Create the Script

• Right-click on your desktop or in any folder

• Select New → AutoHotkey Script

• Name it something like ctrl0_to_insert.ahk

Step 3: Edit the Script

• Right-click the file and select “Edit Script”

• Add this code:

; AutoHotkey v2
^0::Insert  ; Maps Ctrl+0 to Insert key

; For AutoHotkey v1.1, use:
; ^0::Send {Insert}

Step 4: Run the Script

• Double-click the .ahk file to run it

• You’ll see the AutoHotkey icon in your system tray

• Test by pressing Ctrl+0 – it should now act as Insert

Step 5: Auto-start (Optional)

• Press Win+R, type shell:startup

• Copy your .ahk file to this folder

• It will now run automatically when Windows starts
