Creating Windows Terminal keyboard shortcut for Windows Store App

By "Terminal", I assume you mean the CMD prompt, but this applies to any Windows application.

1. Right-click the Desktop, and select New > Shortcut.

2. In the location of the item, type or paste the following, or the location of any application:

   C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe

3. Accept the default name or type another.

4. Click Finish.

5. Right-click the new shortcut and select Properties.

6. Set the Shortcut key by pressing the corresponding key combination, e.g, CtrlAltT

7. Click OK.

This shortcut can be copied to other PC's, but may need to be re-registered. Windows now restricts the folders from which a keyboard shortcut works. You can put the shortcut (.lnk) file on the Desktop or in either of the following folders:

  C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
  C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs

To re-register the keyboard shortcut, after moving the shortcut, right-click, change the shortcut key to another, Apply, change it back to CtrlAltT, and Apply, again.
