I'd like to map Win+W to behave like Win+Tab and Win+Q and Win+E to switch to previous and next virtual desktops respectively (What CTRL+Win+Arrow Keys do by default).

How can this be done? (I have AutoHotKey installed but if that's your solution please provide the script as I don't know how to script it.).

I figured out how to do this with AutoHotKey. Quite simple.

Create a file windows_hotkeys.ahk somewhere, with this code:

;map win+q and win+e to switch between virtual desktops.
#q::#^Left
#e::#^Right

;also, map win+w to open the "window overview" thingy (what win+tab does by default)
#w::#Tab

Save it and right-click and "run script".

About the script:

:: is used to map one hotkey to simply trigger another hotkey.

; is a comment.

# is the windows key.

Tab is the tab key.

Left and Right are the left and right arrow keys.
