Disable Win-L key ???

[forever7]

Hi

On my laptop, I would frequently accidentally press the Win key and L key, when I really want to press Ctrl key and L key.

Win-L locks the screen, which is annoying because I have to type my password to unlock.

Is there a way to disable Win-L ?

Thanks!


P.s. I never had this problem with a full size keyboard at work. I only have this problem because my home laptop keyboard is much smaller.

Have a read through this link.

Note that there are 2 sections and both use a different method.
1. Home Users: Disable Windows Lock by Editing the Registry
2. Pro and Enterprise Users: Disable Workstation Lock with the Local Group Policy Editor

Although the above method does what I want to do, which is disable Win-L, but it also completely disabled lock-screen.

With the above method, there's no way to lock the screen any more, unless you log-out.

The above method is too inconvenient for me. For example, if I have to go use the restroom, I cannot just lock the screen to go use the toilet. I would have to log-out first, which close all my apps.
