I found power toys didn't work too well, especially when you want to turn it off and on, or put exceptions for some programs

I just have a simple autohotkey script + vim like keys for going up and down in textboxes/selection/dropdowns.

  <!k::Send {Up}
  <!j::Send {Down}
  Capslock::Esc

Only downside is the mess that happens when on other machines that don't have that, also try to use ^[ as much as possible.
