Windows 2000 and Tweak UI
Disable Windows Button Keyboard Shortcuts
SUMMARY: Disable most functionality of your keyboard's Windows button with Tweak UI for Windows 2000.
If you accidentally enter keyboard shortcuts with the "Windows" button such as WIN-R to run a program, WIN-F to search for files, you can disable these shortcuts with Tweak UI. Note that while you can disable shortcuts, pressing the Windows button without any other keys pressed will still open the "Start" menu.
1. Download, install, and run Tweak UI for Windows 2000 using the tips mentioned in MalekTips.
2. When "Tweak UI" starts, click the "IE" tab.
3. Uncheck "Enable Windows+X hotkeys (requires logoff)".
4. Press "OK" to close the dialog box.
5. Logoff and log back on.
