    How to disable certain Windows keyboard shortcuts.


    Hi all. My Windows 10 version has keyboard shortcuts enabled which change the orientation (see here). Does anyone know how to disable these? Is updating my Windows to a new version the only way? Or can I perhaps edit the registry or something to do this?

    The reason I ask is because these keyboard shortcuts are near other keyboard shortcuts I have setup, so I occasionally accidentally change the orientation of my screens.

    Thanks in advance.

    Disable Windows 10 keyboard shortcuts

    I want to turn off all Windows 10 keyboard shortcuts. Following others' suggestions, I right-clicked on the Desktop and followed the menu through graphics options to hotkeys and chose "Disable". However this hasn't helped. At least some remain. One
    example among many: {WindowsKey + I} still opens Settings. How can I disable this and all other Windows shortcut keys?

    Disable corner snapping keyboard shortcut in Windows 10

    Try redefining your shortcut keys using Autohotkey (free). Something similar worked for another user- different function.

    I'd suggest considering allocating Win key Up/Down to Autohotkey's WinMaximize, WinMinimize com,ands.

    Its help is excellent, good user forum.
