Disable Key in Shell nonfunction after exec a game

[RDX]

Here is my situation, I made a shell which disable all the task/shortcut keys like a screensaver. and I set a button inside the shell that it can launch a game(egiabloII) . After I click and run the game, my shortcut keys are back, even if i quit the game, and go back to the shell, the key disable is no longer functioning.

Anyone know why? Please help, thnx

The game probably re-enables all the keys so that they'll work in the game. You'd have to re-disable the keys after the game has finished.

how? Is there way that I can make those keys disable in the game?

Well keys like Ctrl, Alt, Del, Tab are all rather integral keys to most games. I doubt most games would be playable otherwise !

Anyway, are you doing it like this :

Private Declare Function SystemParametersInfo Lib "user32" Alias "SystemParametersInfoA" (ByVal uAction As Long, ByVal uParam As Long, lpvParam As Any, ByVal fuWinIni As Long) As Long
Private Const SPI_SCREENSAVERRUNNING  As Long = 97
 
 
SystemParametersInfo SPI_SCREENSAVERRUNNING, 1&, 0&, 0

yes, how about removing keys from registry, does game have alt-tab build in to them?
