Answer 1

Two alternatives.

RegisterHotKey

// Registers a hot key with Windows.
[DllImport(“user32.dll”)]
private static extern bool RegisterHotKey(IntPtr hWnd, int id, uint fsModifiers, uint vk);
// Unregisters the hot key with Windows.
[DllImport(“user32.dll”)]
private static extern bool UnregisterHotKey(IntPtr hWnd, int id);

Since you are targeting WPF you would also need to add a WndProc to your HwndSource .

SetWindowsHookEx

[DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
static extern IntPtr SetWindowsHookEx(HookType hookType, HookProc lpfn, IntPtr hMod, uint dwThreadId);
[DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
[return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
static extern bool UnhookWindowsHookEx(IntPtr hhk);
