Windows 10: Win+X insight

The following applies to BOTH Win10 and Win11Rt Clk Win logo gives a very useful menu and items that can be clicked. BUT:If Win+X is used instead to see that menu one can notice each item has an underlined letter. Win+X+that letter will take you directly to that item. It becomes really nice once you remember them... you don't even need to look at the menu or click anything.Cheers,Drew

How to disable Win+L in Windows 10?

As far as I know, there is no mean to disable only one Win+X keyboard shortcut.

What I can suggest is to disable completely Win+X hotkeys:

1. Type regedit in RUN or Start search box and press Enter. It'll open Registry Editor.
   
2. Now go to following key:
   HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
   
3. In right-side pane, create a new DWORD NoWinKeys and set its value to 1
   

1. Close Registry Editor and restart your system. After reboot, all Win+X hotkeys will be turned off in your system.
   

To re-enable them, delete the DWORD NoWinKeys created in step 3.
