Hi all!

I'm a big fan of Evernote and I've been using it for over a year. I know Evernote for Windows lets you customize shortcuts via the Tools > Options menu but that lists only shorcuts for four actions.

The default shortcut for Sync is F9, but I'd prefer something like Ctrl + S because it's more natural. Is there a way to change it - it's not listed in the Options menu?

You could use AutoHotkey... I haven't tested this out, but it should work.

#IfWinActive Evernote
^s::
Send {F9}
Return
#IfWinActive

I tried this script out just now, but I added a line before your code. It goes like
<b>SetTitleMatchMode, 2 </b>
and it worked!

Evernote window's title is usually something along the lines of: "1- <note-name> - Evernote" so this particular line tells Autohotkey to look for a window with the words Evernote anywhere in the title bar.

Thank you so much, Geek! :)

Ahh, right. My scripts always have that title match at the top anyway
