Perhaps as a helper for implementing this feature:
- The Microsoft PowerToys Keyboard Manager module contains remapping for system hotkeys to other hotkey binds or running commands. The PowerToys codebase is licensed under MIT, so you should be able to reuse its code. You can find the code here: https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/tree/main/src/modules/keyboardmanager
- AutoHotkey also supports overriding hotkeys using keyboard hooks. It implements a masking logic to avoid popping up the start menu when a blocked hotkey combo is handled, which is documented here: https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/v1/lib/_MenuMaskKey.htm. Its source can be found at https://github.com/AutoHotkey/AutoHotkey. Of course, it is licensed under GPL, so it cannot be reused here, but at least it may be useful to learn the necessary information. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/key-bindings-fail/?ID=018e7f1a-cb94-7653-8ea5-522530ca0088#7 Tue, 09 Apr 2024 03:59:48 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/key-bindings-fail/?ID=018e7f1a-cb94-7653-8ea5-522530ca0088#7 DisplayFusion But they were working just fine untill recently, that's why I posted in the first place... ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/key-bindings-fail/?ID=018e7f1a-cb94-7653-8ea5-522530ca0088#6 Mon, 08 Apr 2024 18:04:24 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/key-bindings-fail/?ID=018e7f1a-cb94-7653-8ea5-522530ca0088#6 DisplayFusion Ah, yeah Windows still reserves those hotkeys if they are disabled. Overriding them isn't something we currently support, but we do have it on our feature request list so I've added your vote to it.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/key-bindings-fail/?ID=018e7f1a-cb94-7653-8ea5-522530ca0088#5 Tue, 02 Apr 2024 07:14:45 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/key-bindings-fail/?ID=018e7f1a-cb94-7653-8ea5-522530ca0088#5 DisplayFusion I've uninstalled it to test - ExplorerPatcher is not the problem.
The issue started recently, I think MS pushed updates for the copilot (win + c) now calls CoPilot, despite the fact it shouldn't according to the registry key. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/key-bindings-fail/?ID=018e7f1a-cb94-7653-8ea5-522530ca0088#4 Mon, 01 Apr 2024 15:08:10 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/key-bindings-fail/?ID=018e7f1a-cb94-7653-8ea5-522530ca0088#4 DisplayFusion Thanks for sending that over, it looks like you have ExplorerPatcher installed as well. Does that have any settings to override hotkeys? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/key-bindings-fail/?ID=018e7f1a-cb94-7653-8ea5-522530ca0088#3 Thu, 28 Mar 2024 04:27:27 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/key-bindings-fail/?ID=018e7f1a-cb94-7653-8ea5-522530ca0088#3 DisplayFusion Done. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/key-bindings-fail/?ID=018e7f1a-cb94-7653-8ea5-522530ca0088#2 Wed, 27 Mar 2024 14:06:45 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/key-bindings-fail/?ID=018e7f1a-cb94-7653-8ea5-522530ca0088#2 DisplayFusion Could you send me a copy of your troubleshooting info?

I have an issue - recently all my bindings started failing.
It looks like Windows' reserved key combinations are no longer affected by the values of "DisabledHotkeys" in Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced

Does anyone have an idea how can assign those reserved hotkeys?

BR,
Petar ]]>
