    How to turn off applilcation global hotkey ?


    Hello.

    Some application (most probably one from ivona.com) have register global hotkey Ctrl+Alt+T.
    So I can not start quick search in Total Commander from leter T.
    I turn off ivona application but hotkey still lead to unexsisting shortcut to exe file.
    I was searching in google for turning off hotkeys in windows, but all what I find is how to turn off build in windows hot keys and applications to register new global hotkeys.

    Is there a way to find witch task have registred hotkey ?
    Is there some place in registry where global hotkeys are defined ?

    Try the shortcut properties of the software in question.

    That shortcut is not in that menu.
    And I'm not sure is it that software or other.

    I was referring to the shortcut properties that Windows uses...You know all those icons in the start menu are shortcuts...see below.

    I have a few of these as well. I tend to open the properties (as shown in logicearth's post), click in the field highlighted in that screenshot and press backspace to delete the OS shortcut key. Then I use the general tab of that same proerties window to make the shortcut a read-only file. This usually prevents updates to the program in question from being able to redefine that shortcut key.
