keyboard shortcuts - How can I determine which process owns a hotkey in Windows?

Given a hotkey, how can I find which program owns it?

Answer

Caution: If you use Win 8 or later, do not use this utility as it will create some trouble - see comments.

If you are running a Windows earlier than Windows 8, then Windows Hotkey Explorer is probably what you want. This is also mentioned in the StackOverflow question: Find out what process registered a global hotkey? (Windows API).
