Step 4 – Test your hotkeys

Best Hotkeys to Use in 2025

  • Function keys (F7, F8, F9) – safe and rarely conflict with games
  • Unused keys – for example Insert or Pause
  • Avoid movement keys (WASD, Spacebar) – prevents accidental activation

Best Hotkeys for Popular Games

Roblox

In Roblox, avoid hotkeys near WASD. F8 and F9 work well because they do not interfere with gameplay.

Minecraft

For Minecraft AFK farming, use F7 (Start) and F8 (Stop). These keys stay clear of inventory and movement controls.

Cookie Clicker

In idle games like Cookie Clicker, almost any hotkey works, but function keys are the safest option.

Common Mistakes

– Assigning hotkeys to frequently used keys (for example, Spacebar).
– Forgetting to test hotkeys after rebinding.
– Using keys that overlap with system shortcuts.

How to Fix Hotkey Issues

  • Run Speed Auto Clicker as administrator if hotkeys do not work
  • Choose unused keys to avoid conflicts with other apps
  • Try different function keys if the game blocks global hotkeys
