Re: Winkey not working properly in Vista

I've tried it all, several different ways. I used the Compatibility wizard
or whatever it's called and changed the compatibility on Winkey to Windows
98. But, once again, after the computer was turned off and turned on again,
it was not possible to open the Winkey program, even though the previously
assigned Winkey combinations still worked.

Is there any reason why the Compatibility feature would work with one
utility, but not with another, that might enable some way of getting around
this problem?
