AHK is a powerful scripting runtime for Windows, yeah. I use it to create custom media hotkeys when using a keyboard that doesn’t have actual media keys built in. But that probably the smallest tip-of-the-iceberg of what it can do.
I had to convince IT to let me keep it installed because it CAN be used by bad actors with how powerful it is. But it’s not too different from what any program on Windows could do; just makes a lot of basic things VERY easy.
