AutoHotKey scripts I have written.
Please note that, these are not full blown applications. Some of them are very specific to some applications, versions and even languages. There is a strong possibility that a script in this repository may work on a system, but not on another.
It is also possible they will behave differently with different keyboard layouts.
So please use them at your own risk.

Copy the corresponding script to a directory of your choice, and run it.
Windows 7 and Windows 8 has been used for testing. But, almost all of the scripts here automate some applications/platforms, so the exact supported environment varies from script to script. Better to check the source code for the exact results.
Tested with AutoHotkey 1.1.13.01.
Some antivirus software will report the Windows binaries for these scripts as malicious software,
such as this one.
It is a false positive, they are not.
If you are suspicious, simply download the source code in .ahk format,
then compile them yourself, or simply use them in their source code form.
Simply run the corresponding script.
Some of them are triggered by special hotkeys, some of them do their thing when they are executed.
Please see the source code of the corresponding script.
Download youtube-dl-helper.exe
youtube-dl is an incredible video downloader
supporting a ton of online services.
youtube-dl-helper.ahk is a simple script providing less typing when using youtube-dl.
To use it, copy the video URL to clipboard, switch to cmd.exe as you would with
youtube-dl and type y22 to download the video in high definition.
y22 will expand to this, waiting for you to press ENTER:
youtube-dl -t --write-description -f 22 -- "<WHATEVER FROM THE CLIPBOARD>"
The script will perform when the hotstrings are used.
Automates Microsoft Excel 2010 to clear trusted documents. The script will perform at the moment it is executed.

Download disable_shift_del.exe
Disables shift-delete key on Windows, and switches it with regular delete key.
So, whenever shift-delete is used, file will go to Recycle Bin instead.

Download snipping-tool-new.exe
Launch the Snipping Tool of Windows and automatically activates New.
It is a simple script that will copy the files dropped to its icon to clipboard.
When executed, it shreds Windows Recycle Bin using McAfee's Shredder, since McAfee Live Save - Internet Security 12.8 does not place such a right click menu to the Recycle Bin.
Download firefox_save_in_archive.exe
When executed, it overrides ctrl-s (only when Firefox is active)
by sending alt-f key for file menu and press g for Save Page In Archive As.
Firefox does not have a Save Page In Archive As method by default.
This menu item comes with the
Mozilla Archive Format
add-on.
Since Save Page In Archive As menu item does not have a shortcut,
this little script provides one by overriding Save Page As.
Here is a screenshot for the menu structure:
Download ie_save_in_archive.exe
When executed, it overrides ctrl-s (only when Internet Explorer is active).
It makes sure that the web pages are saved as Web Archive, single file (*.mht).
This little script opens the Internet Options and cleans history by pressing Delete button.
A few simple scripts to disable control, alt and shift keys on your keyboard.
