Guys, my windows hot keys have stopped working.

You know, the keys:

Windows Key + M (to minimise)
Windows Key + R (to bring up run)
etc etc

Anyone tell me how to get them working please?

I can't google, no INT access.

While I'm at on it, Haha.. if anyone has a 1GB account they not using, PM me ;) haha.

Was it not SP3 that caused the problem? Or maybe a recently installed application running in the background that is conflicting with the hotkeys / not allowing them to function.

Did u try something like HotkeyBind --> http://hotkeybind.sourceforge.net/
to try and rebind the hotkeys?


When did they stop working? Maybe you could system restore to the last date that they were working

I don't use system restore.

I'm thinking maybe the SP3 that buggered it up... but I'm not sure of that either.

So irratating, I can't see that site... damn it, wish end of the month would come so I can get an INT account, pointless buying one now, only 3 days left :(

The program is cool, but you need to always run it... I'd like to not run any 'extra' programs - thanks though mxit_fan

OK gdiza try this:

Locate the [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer] user key. Next, find or create a new DWORD value called NoWinKeys and set its value to “0″ to enable Windows
hotkeys for users.

You’ll probably need to log out of Windows for this registry tweak to take effect.
