If you want to keep your Windows logo key, but you don??™t like the Winkey hotkey
combinations (e.g., Winkey+R), you can turn those off with a quick Registry
hack. Open the Registry Editor (see Chapter 3) and expand the branches to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\
Explorer. Create a new DWord value by selecting Edit ??? New ??? DWord
Value (32-bit), and then name the new value NoWinKeys. Double-click the new
value, type 1 for its data, and click OK. You??™ll need to log out and then back in
again for the change to take effect.
