Greetings, programs. Can anyone tell me if and how I can disable [Strg]
+ [Winkey] + [F] - the shortcut that brings up Windows' Find? I need
to use this hotkey it in another app, but Windows always intercepts.

I do *not* want to switch off all Winkey hotkeys using e.g. TweakUI;
some of them are actually quite useful.

Thank you!
 
As far as I know, you can disable the left, right or both Windows keys. As
far as I know, you cannot disable and reprogram Windows key + F.

To specify shortcut keys for specific programs
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/...ddocs/en-us/windows_dos_specify_shortcut.mspx

Disable left Windows key: disable_left_windows_key.reg
Disable right Windows key: disable_right_windows_key.reg
Disable both Windows keys: disable_both_windows_keys.reg
Disable Windows Key

Oh drat. This is ugly. :/
Anyway- thank you for your input.

If someone else knows an obscure Registry hack or another trick, I
would be really grateful ...
