I absolutely love the Run feature. Mostly because I can't say that about the stock Windows search, due to it sometimes not including things or making some things smaller, making it harder to find that one obscure thing.

However, it doesn't seem that we can change the binding to a Win key combination. So I would like to request the ability to change the binding to for example Win + Enter.

They said it is supposed to replace Win+R but I can only get that to work if I kill explorer.exe, bind it to Win+R but it only works until next reboot.

It should be possible with a workaround. I assigned win + space to the run dialog which also is not directly possible. The workaround is to assign a different shortcut that is not used and then go into the keyboard mapper and assign your shortcut including the windows key to the shortcut for the run dialog
