Windows 10: Windows key + L disabled after HLK run

I have an IT issued machine. I wanted to test a standalone HLK test Exported HLK test on it. After I ran it, winkey + L does not lock the screen anymore. And also after coming out of sleep, I am not seeing the lock screen. It directly comes to windows. Is there a reg key that could have been deleted?

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.

 

Windows HLK - Router Testing on Windows 10

I planned to perform Wireless Router Testing for Windows 10 using the HLK toolkit.

As per the basic HLK requirement, I brought up the HLK Controller by installing the Controller + Studio in a Windows 2008 Server and have installed Clients from the Controller's share in 4 Windows 10 PCs

As per this link, Wireless Router Testing Prerequisites,
there should be configuration jobs and test jobs available for configuring and performing the “Router” Tests. But no jobs or Features were seen on the HLK manager under $\WDK Tests\Networking.

Later I installed WDK for Windows 10 in the Controller (Windows 2008 Server) hoping to find some jobs/Features being populated under $\WDK Tests\Networking, but still no jobs or Features were listed.

Being a beginner, I couldn’t assess if any additional package is missing or any configuration change or “Job/Feature imports” to be performed in HLK. Moreover couldn’t find any reference for it in the Documentation too.
