Disabling Microsoft Natural Keyboard shortcuts
I am trying to disable the Windows + L and Windows + R
Shortcuts in Windows XP. I know that I can easly disable the Windows key itself, but I would like to leave that functionality available. Is there a way to either remove or disable those two (or all the MSK shortcuts)? I have attempted to remap the Make command for the windows key to the Break command (Since it is the make command and the L key that locks the computer). That has no effect. I have disabled just the Make command, but without a Make command, there is no Break command, so it just disables the Windows Key all together. I would prefer not to use 3rd party software for this, but it would be considered if nothing else was available. Does anyone have any thoughs on this? I have given links below as to what information I have used so far. http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/hwdev/...t/Scancode.msp x http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/hwdev/tech/input/w2kscan- map.mspx Thanks for you help. |
