I was using Lync 2010 for a long time... but now I have switched to Lync 2013 recently. The key to open Lync 2013 is changed to Win+Y
from Win+Q
...Is there any way to change this to old key as it was in 2010.

You can use AutoHotkey and run the following script:
#q::#y
I use Q out of old habit too.

That is one way to do it, but if any application relies on Win+Y, you will need to (at least temporarily) disable the script.– CfinleyJan 8, 2015 at 14:51

Actually you wouldn't be able to do anything about Win+Y as that is Lync's own hotkey. However, if another application uses Win+Q you would need to chose which would win. Since Lync 2010 uses Win+Q and Lync 2013 uses Win+Y it seems unlikely that an enterprise application would chose any of those for it's hotkeys. Jan 11, 2015 at 11:33

It seems that I had a typo in my first comment. It should be Win+Q. I'm sure that there is a way to have auto hot key detect if Lync 2013 is open and run the command if it is.– CfinleyJan 12, 2015 at 16:13

My solution uses both hotkeys, and does not provide a way to remap Lync's hotkey and free up Win+Y. I am not familiar with a way to accomplish that. Jan 15, 2015 at 19:12
