How do I disable the Windows Key when playing in fullscreen mode?
 
Since I press it instead of ALT or SHIFT sometimes and it usally gets me killed or something in a game.
Thanks in advanced. peace. (:

I'd like to know which version of Windows has that option. None of the versions I've seen let you do that.

@Michael: sorry, but I can't think of a way to disable it short of physically removing it from the keyboard. You could always try remapping the keys used for JJ2 to shift your fingers away from the windows key (I had to do that once as a KVM switch I used used Ctrl as it's hotkey). Alternatively, you may be able to find a utility online to change the behaviour of the windows key.

No screwdrivers required.

I searched but didn't fidn a utility. I am almost sure I had this feature on my old ocmputer so it's weird, but if you say the option doesn't exist then I trust you...
Anyone know a good place besise google to find this kind of utility?

i just realized my solution won't work because Michael uses Win98 :P

Torkell Jan 11, 2006 03:56 AM

*thinks*... there might have been something in the Kernel Toys for Win98 that would let you remap keys. Google for kernel toys.

No I got my new computer now.....Win XP.
The '98 is on the old computer, which my dad want's in Hebrew. (:

Yes, it'll need a restart.

Michael Jan 12, 2006 03:05 AM

Cool it works now. Thank you! [:

A little old but I wrote a small utility for when I played Unreal Tournament a lot... http://www.adamhearn.co.uk/kak/files/WinKey1-1.zip

As long as it's running, it'll disable both Windows keys by default. You can re-enable them by click on the menu option (utility adds a System tray icon). It's very small util.
