Windows 10: Re-enable windows key (on keyboard with cmd)

Ok so basically a few years back I broke my arm and had a cast on for quite a while, and during this period I would almost always be on my pc. The thing is the cast would always hit my windows key since it was my left arm, therefore tabbing me out of whatever game I was playing.

So after a while I did something in command prompt that I read somewhere to disable it, and it worked and all was good, until I got it off and ever since then I cannot use the windows key. I can't find where I found the script so im not sure how to revert it. It's not a major issue but it's been driving me a bit crazy lately, and I was wondering if anyone would know what I am talking about and how to fix it.

Thanks in advance
