I'm looking for a way to send a "Windows key" keystroke by script in PE (Windows 8.1 PE). In normal Windows, sending this keystroke is no problem at all, lots of programs can do this (eg. AutoIt, AutoHotkey, etc). But in 8.1 PE, in PE mode (not OS mode), this doesn't seem to be possible. All other keys work fine, just not the Windows key. If you've never heard about this, never mind, but if you might have stumbled upon a solution for this, please share... Sending "Windows key + T" would be a nice way to enable the taskbar in PE mode for Win8.1SE. See: http://theoven.org/index.php?topic=1201.0 I'm sure the developers at TheOven.org would be very thankful for any solution!
I thinks this is very good idea , perhaps I think there is somthing wrong on the registry setting could you use the setting give it try and tell me
So you're trying to programmatically press the winkey? Can't you better call the eventhandler that gets fired when the hotkey is pressed? If that's possible with the scripting environment you're using of course. EDIT: I see you want to enable the taskbar. Doesn't that basically mean you want to start explorer? I think that if you use a keyboardlistener, and start explorer.exe when you get the keycode of the winkey, it should have the same effect. Or am I wrong here?
Thanks for your input. The guys at TheOven.org have found a solution a couple of days ago. Read about it here: http://theoven.org/index.php?topic=1201.msg14408#msg14408 It's quite a complicated solution, involving the WinIO library. But it works!! ChrisR will build it into Win8.1SE soon... (Still some timing issues to test/ work out)
Really Strang , Idid't Think It Will Be aQuite Complicated Like This I Though It's Will Be Regstiry Subject , So
