&lt;p&gt;You can download WinKeyPlus from &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.winkeyplus.com"&gt;http://www.winkeyplus.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Map applications, folders and even text to key combinations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can also disable keys. (I am looking at you F1).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is normal when a new process is launched for the environment variables to be copied to the new process' environment, and not copied back to the system. &amp;nbsp;This is the correct default behavoir of new processes. &amp;nbsp;If you want to get around this, there are tools like JPSoft's 4NT that let you modify system environment variables.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=2291692" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: WinKey - Windows Key Assignment Freeware</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/b/noahc/archive/2006/08/11/695910.aspx#1978827</link><pubDate>Wed, 28 Mar 2007 20:51:51 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:1978827</guid><dc:creator>Levent</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;This is a great utility I have been using for a while. However, I just found out that the developer discontinued this product. Whatever that means for us users... (&lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.copernic.com/en/support/faq-winkey.html"&gt;http://www.copernic.com/en/support/faq-winkey.html&lt;/a&gt;) (or hit winkey+ctrl+f9 if you have winkey installed ;) &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I recently noticed a subtle &amp;quot;bug&amp;quot; with this software. It doesn't keep the environment variables intact as a program is launched. You can try this: &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. Open a command window (go to startmenu&amp;gt;run and type cmd)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. Type in echo %PATH% &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3. Now set a shortcut in WinKey for command windows. The executable is C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4. Now bring up the command windows using WinKey shortcut. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5. Type in echo %PATH%&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;See the difference? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;L.&lt;/p&gt;
