#Requires AutoHotkey v2.0

;;#z:: ;Hotkey: Win+Z (Hotkey not used; Executed from StreamDeck)


;; AutoHotKey script
;; https://www.autohotkey.com/

;; Description:
;;    This script setups the Windows system for a smooth operation
;;    of Cubase.
;;    It opens the necessary programs (but not Cubase itself)
;;    It closes unused programs that run in the background (e.g., Dropbox) that
;;    are not required by may decrease Cubase performance

;;  Note:
;;    Below are several mechanisms to close applications.

;;    This script does not terminate the LogiTune applications/processes.
;;    These applications are probably set to restart automatically from its own settings,
;;    or the Windows startup list, or the Task Scheduler. You can try to check there and disable its auto startup
