Running flows question

Hi automators.
Can you tell, is there really no way of exeuting local flows, locally other than clicking "Run"? in Power Automate Desktop. Here in May 2021.
I know I could put it into a loop and things like that.

But, is there no option for either... Hotkey combo.. Executable or shortcut. Something I can do to directly run a flow.
Am I missing something that is in the Premium version?

The only thing I can think of right now, is something really silly like making a looping flow where, IF file exists = run something, and then have AutoHotKey(AHK) make a file in that location upon a specific key press.

    Never mind, I am blind fool.

    I will use "Wait for shortcut key" action.

    Solved.
