    AddressBar Shortcuts

    I created many shortcuts in my register *\app paths. My address bar opens on the taskbar when I highlight the taskbar (Like a qualifier). Is there a way to execute an address bar command without having to highlight the address bar? In other works just type the shortcut key.
