Key Commands?

[wilder13]

Since I started using Parallels (beta 1), I get to a point in Windows where typing a key will trigger a command to happen (i.e. "m" hides the current window and "r" brings up the Run window). I thought I had done something in Windows that I couldn't find, so I installed a fresh copy of Windows in a new VM hard drive, but the same thing happened.

Shutting down Windows and restarting makes the issue go away...for a few minutes.

Is this a WIndows setting that I'm missing, or is something wrong? This one is driving me nuts.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I get this problem a lot too. It seems like the windows key is getting stuck. Pressing cmd a few times usually fixes it. Maybe being able to disable the windows key would help?

I think there's a registry entry for it. I'm going to try it out.
