Use Win key as hotkey to trigger flow #662
Comments
I think many users like this feature, Flow can replace Windows search. I remember this was requested in Wox as well. I think Autohotkey can do this |
Yeah it it's not doable due to the library we are using, we will need to find and switch to a different one. |
@jjw24 I use wox, considering switching due to an unadressed bug that renders the software useless. Regardless, I remaped the windows key to something else and wox to the windows key (or what it was) using some random key assignment software I found. was def easier than AHK |
Yeah definitely tools out there that can map windows key, I just want to build it natively for flow. |

I would like to have that too. |
For workarounds using other tools to get this working please see #747 |
I tried this, but without all that extra since I just want to use win+space, but while Flow pops up when pressing those keys it seems that AHK keeps my ctrl button (since I use ctrl-space in Flow for the menu) is still pressed which makes it so I can't write anything unless I press ctrl first, then it works as it should. |
There will be a new plugin coming to the store that will enable the ability to use the Win key to open and close flow, very good for those that are looking for this functionality. If the plugin hasn't shown up yet for you, you can download it from here also https://github.com/AminSallah/Flow.Launcher.Plugin.WinHotkey ( |
Plugin released to store and supports custom shortcuts & Portable mode

Working on this. |
very excited to hear progress is being made! I've made multiple attempts at using flow launcher over the years but I keep ending up using fluent or powertoys because of muscle memory! |
Using the Windows key to trigger flow, surely this can be done, just need to find the right win API library I suppose
