I have to use Internet Explorer for work which is why I have not disabled Internet Explorer on my work computer. When I hit Ctrl+Shift+N in Chrome, instead of opening a Chrome incognito window, an Internet Explorer window pops up. Can I somehow disable that such that Ctrl+Shift+N will open Chrome in incognito mode (as the menu in Chrome says it does)?
On Google, I did not find anything very helpful. (I'd personally be in favor of solving the problem via the Windows registry as this would not require third-party software like AutoHotkey, but I don't know what I'd have to change here.)
I'm using Windows 10. I tried to create a copy of the Chrome shortcut, add --incognito to it and assign a global hotkey to it, but when trying to set that hotkey, I will also be slapped in the face by IE.
Answer
Some progams like ClipX will "take over" shortcuts, including Ctrl+Shift+N for their own purposes. You can either remove the program or right-click the icon in the tray and choose Configure to change the duplicate shortcut to something else.
