How to register multiple global hot-keys in C#?

[scriptick]

Hi everyone,
I want to register multiple global hotkeys. CTRL+A , SHIFT+B etc etc etc.
I want to more clear :
If i pressed : CTRL+A then a message will show (MessageBox.Show("Pavel,Tangal")
If i pressed SHIFT+B then minimize application.
If i pressed SHIFT+C maximize application.

I found a solution on internet related to it but i can not add here modifiers keys like : CTRL or SHIFT or ALT etc.

It is like : A,B,C,D

Sorry for my English.

Pls see my project sample and pls help me. (on attach)
Thanks

Hey scriptick, you can use 'KeyDown' event for your form like as follows,

void Form1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Control & e.KeyCode == Keys.A)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("Pavel,Tangal");
    }
    else if (e.Shift & e.KeyCode == Keys.B)
    {
        this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized;
    }
    else if(e.Shift & e.KeyCode == Keys.C)
    {
        this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized;
    }
}

Note: This code ll work only if 'Form1' had focus.

Hey scriptick, I already told you "This code ll work only if 'Form1' had focus." Are you trying to create any malicious software?

Hello vijay6, Thank you a lot for your again reply. Many many thanks.

Anyway I am not creating malicious software. I want to made game trainer with it. I already made some game trainer with this methood.
On GTA Vice City :
If Press CTRL+ALT+1 = SendKeys.Send("LeaveMeAlone");

Before i do it in LUA.But now i want to do it on C#.NET.

Nothing Else.

Thank you !!!

Hey scriptick, Well! this is interesting!!! You can use the code which is in the below link for your trainer. All you have to do is replace the 'gHook_KeyDown' event by the below code.

Global KeyBoard Hook C#

public void gHook_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
    if ((lastKey == 162 || lastKey == 163) && e.KeyValue == 65)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("Pavel,Tangal");
    }
 
    else if ((lastKey == 160 || lastKey == 161) && e.KeyValue == 66)
    {
        this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized;
    }
 
    else if ((lastKey == 160 || lastKey == 161) && e.KeyValue == 67)
    {
        this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized;
    }
 
    lastKey = e.KeyValue;
}

Note:

lastKey - Integer type class variable.

65 refers to A.
66 refers to B.
67 refers to C.
160 refers to Left Shift.
161 refers to Right Shift.
162 refers to Left Ctrl.
163 refers to Right Ctrl.

Before i do it in LUA.

Can you share your 'GTA Vice City' trainer with others (me)?

@OP
THe fact that you want this to happen outside of your program's focus/ownership makes this is potentially dangerous code and follows inline with a more recent thread of yours...

Asking for help to write potentially malicious code is against site policy and may result in the suspension of your account.

I respectfully ask that you clearly state the intent of this project.
