If you're looking to streamline your workflow and access Bluetooth settings quickly, using Win + Shift + B to open Bluetooth devices is a fantastic shortcut! Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to set it up with AutoHotkey (AHK).

Step 1: Install AutoHotkey

First, you'll need to install AutoHotkey on your system.

Go to the AutoHotkey website and download the installer.
Follow the instructions to install AutoHotkey on your computer.

Step 2: Create the AutoHotkey Script

Now that you have AutoHotkey installed, you’ll need to create a script that maps the Win + Shift + B keyboard shortcut to open Bluetooth settings.

Right-click on your Desktop, select New, and then AutoHotkey Script.
Name the script BluetoothShortcut.ahk.
Right-click the newly created file and select Edit Script.
Delete any default content inside the file, and paste the following code:

#+b::Run, ms-settings:bluetooth
return

Explanation:
- # = Win key
- + = Shift key
- b = B key
This line of code tells AutoHotkey to open Bluetooth settings when Win + Shift + B is pressed.

Save the file and double-click it to run the script.

After this, pressing Win + Shift + B will instantly open Bluetooth settings on your Windows machine.

Step 3 (Optional): Run on Startup

If you want the script to run automatically every time you boot your computer, you can add it to your startup folder:

Press Win + R, type shell:startup, and hit Enter.
Copy your BluetoothShortcut.ahk script file into the Startup folder.

Now, every time you start Windows, the Bluetooth shortcut will be ready to use! 🎉
