Windows 10: Remapping one Appkey instance as another in the Registry Editor

I have a Logitech keyboard with extra keys for media, calculator etc. I know that I can remap them to open applications instead by inserting a ShellExecute String Value with the path of the related app in the corresponding AppKey entry for example: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AppKey\7 in the registry editor. However, I want to remap the Home and E-Mail keys to Previous and Next Track respectively. I realise that these keys eventually generate a Virtual Key event. My question is, can I achieve this effect without using an external script runn

AppKey in Registry items - what values have all keyboard keys?

I'm not asking about registry keys and values change - manually or by VB...

I'm asking:

registry key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AppKey\18

short AppKey\18 is assigned to multimedia key Calc or App2.

Q:

how to get values for other keys - and not only multimedial?

like short

AppKey\xx
