Windows 10: Change Win Key for Virtual Desktop

I love using virtual desktop however, the use of the Win key is giving me a lot of grief. A second program I utilize heavily craps out when the win key is pressed. It's been several months and developers are in no rush to fix this issue.

I was hoping someone knew of a registry edit that would change the Virtual Desktop change desktop shortcut away from the Win key. Please note, I'm not looking to remap the key as the issue still occurs.

Moving a running application to a different virtual desktop

To change a application from one Virtual Desktop to another you need to:

• Press Windows Key+Tab key on the desktop in which is running the application you want to move.
• Drag the application to the desktop you want to transfer. To transfer you need to put the app on the desktop that are showen below.

And the application is moved.

 

Virtual desktops

In the article you linked it says talks about 4 goals Microsoft has with virtual desktops:

• Give you more desktop space to group related windows
• Help you quickly locate and switch to any window or group of windows
• Let you easily re-organize your groups and move windows as tasks evolve
• Keep you in control of the degree of separation between your grouped windows

Not being able to control what desktop the program opens on really doesn't fit in with these goals.

Give me one good reason for why it is suppose force me to change virtual desktop when I open a program, just one good reason and I will consider to drop the issue. To me this sounds like virtual desktops isn't ready yet and you refuse to acknowledge that
there are bugs, because this makes it very hard to work with multiply virtual desktops.
