Scroll Lock 键(Scroll Lock key)很少使用，它可能根本不在您的键盘上，特别是如果它是紧凑型键盘或笔记本电脑键盘。但是，您可以轻松地重新映射Scroll Lock以达到更有用的目的，或者将其配置为启动程序的快捷方式。在这篇文章中，我们将向您展示如何在 Windows 10 上使用 Scroll Lock 键重新映射和启动任何程序。( remap and launch any program with the Scroll Lock key)
Scroll Lock键出现在 1981 年发布的第一台IBM PC 上。它旨在切换一项功能，您可以使用箭头键而不是光标在窗口内移动文本。截至目前，大多数程序中的箭头键会根据上下文自动运行。因此，Scroll Lock功能很少按照最初的预期使用。
但是，Microsoft Excel仍将Scroll Lock用于其原始用途。如果禁用Scroll Lock，您可以使用箭头键在单元格之间移动光标。但是，当启用Scroll Lock时，您可以使用箭头键在窗口内滚动整个工作簿页面。
使用适用于Windows 10的(Windows 10)PowerToys实用程序，您可以轻松地将Scroll Lock键重新映射到另一个键或某些系统功能。重新映射意味着当您按下Scroll Lock时，该键将执行完全不同的操作，而不是激活Scroll Lock 。这样，您可以潜在地将Scroll Lock键用于许多不同的任务。
以下是您可以分配给Scroll Lock键的一些建议功能：
- Mute/Unmute volume:如果配置了此功能，您可以快速控制来自任何来源的音频音量 - 如果您需要将计算机静音以接听电话，则非常方便。
- Play/Pause media:如果配置了此功能，您只需点按 Scroll Lock(Scroll Lock)即可暂停歌曲，然后再次点按以恢复播放。
- 睡眠：(Sleep:)如果配置了此功能，您只需轻按一次Scroll Lock键，您的设备就会进入睡眠(Sleep)模式。
- Caps Lock：如果您总是不小心(hitting Caps Lock accidentally)按 Caps Lock，您可能需要配置此功能。您可以将其分配给Scroll Lock键。您还应该通过为其分配另一个功能来禁用Caps Lock键。
- 浏览器刷新：(Browser refresh:)如果配置了此功能，点击一次Scroll Lock键将快速重新加载当前网页。

我们将把它分成两个子类别，如下所示；
- 如何重新映射 Scroll Lock 键
- 如何使用Scroll Lock键启动程序
让我们看一下这两个任务所涉及的过程。
1]如何重新映射滚动锁定键
要将所需功能重新映射到Scroll Lock键，请执行以下操作：

How to Remap and Launch any Program with Scroll Lock key on Windows
Scroll Lock key is so infrequently used, it might not be on your keyboard at all especially if it’s a compact or laptop keyboard. However, you can easily remap the Scroll Lock to serve a more useful purpose, or configure it as a shortcut to launch a program. In this post, we will show you how to remap and launch any program with the Scroll Lock key on Windows 10.
The Scroll Lock key was on the very first IBM PC released in 1981. It was intended to toggle a feature for which you could use the arrow keys to move text inside a window instead of the cursor. As of present, the arrow keys function in most programs automatically based on context. As a result, the Scroll Lock feature is rarely used as it was originally intended.
However, Microsoft Excel still uses Scroll Lock for its original purpose. If Scroll Lock is disabled, you use the arrow keys to move the cursor between cells. When Scroll Lock is enabled, though, you can use the arrow keys to scroll the entire workbook page within the window.
With the PowerToys utility for Windows 10, you can easily remap the Scroll Lock key to another key or some system function. Remapping means when you press Scroll Lock, instead of activating Scroll Lock, the key will execute an entirely different action. This way, you can potentially use the Scroll Lock key for many different tasks.
Here are some suggested functions you could assign to the Scroll Lock key:
- Mute/Unmute volume: If this function is configured, you can quickly control the audio volume from any source – handy if you need to silence your computer to take a call.
- Play/Pause media: If this function is configured, you can just tap Scroll Lock to pause a song and then tap it again to resume play.
- Sleep: If this function is configured, you can just tap the Scroll Lock key once and your device will be put into Sleep mode.
- Caps Lock: You might want to configure this function if you’re always hitting Caps Lock accidentally. You can assign it to the Scroll Lock key instead. You should also disable the Caps Lock key by assigning it another function.
- Browser refresh: If this function is configured, tapping Scroll Lock key once will quickly reload the current web page.
Remap and launch any program with Scroll Lock key
We will be breaking this into two subcategories as follows;
- How to remap the Scroll Lock key
- How to launch a program with the Scroll Lock key
Let’s take a look at the process involved in both tasks.
1] How to remap the Scroll Lock key
To remap the desired function to the Scroll Lock key, do the following:
- First, you need to download and install the PowerToys utility if you haven’t already.
- After the installation, launch the utility.
- Select Keyboard Manager in the left pane.
- Next, click Remap a key on the right pane.
- In the Remap Keyboard window that appears, click the plus sign (+) to add a shortcut.
On the left, you have to define the key you’re remapping.
- Click Type Key, and then press Scroll Lock.
- In the Mapped To section on the right, click the drop-down menu, and then select the function or key you’d like to map to Scroll Lock.
In this example, we select Volume Mute.
- Click OK to exit the Remap Keyboard window.
Scroll Lock should be successfully remapped!
If at any time you want to discard the mapping, navigate to the Remap Keyboard window in PowerToys and, then click the Trash icon beside the mapping to remove it.
2] How to launch a program with the Scroll Lock key
Scroll Lock can be configured as a hotkey combination to launch any program you want on Windows 10.
To launch a program with the Scroll Lock key, do the following:
- First, create a Desktop shortcut to the program you want to run.
- Then, right-click the shortcut and select Properties.
- In the Shortcut tab, click the Shortcut Key field.
- Now, tap the Scroll Lock key.
Windows will automatically insert Ctrl+Alt+Scroll Lock in the field.
- Click Apply > OK to exit the window.
From now on, whenever you press the Ctrl+Alt+Scroll Lock key combo, the program represented by that shortcut will launch.
Tip: Some users keep hotkey-enabled app shortcuts in a special folder so that they don’t delete the shortcut accidentally.
