How to disable hotkeys in Windows 10

Windows 10 adds in your system some functions called special keys which we usually do not use perhaps because we do not know their function or because they are not really necessary for us. The special keys in Windows 10 are part of the system accessibility category which is focused on providing support to users with some kind of problem when executing keyboard shortcuts such as CTRL + ALT + DEL..

 

 

With the special keys it is possible to create a new combination by pressing once on the key instead of doing it simultaneously. The keys SHIFT (Shift), CTRL, ALT and the Windows logo are part of the special keys, but if you will never really use them TechnoWikis will explain how to disable them from the system.

No, what version of windows 10 do you have? My windows 10 that I have the disc for as well does not have half of those options, and this did not work. My PC is useless right now and it's the settings, not the keyboard. Each key opens a program on the PC.
