How to disable the left Alt key as the taskbar pop-ups when you try to play the game then press the left Alt key

Original title: left disabling Alt Taskbar pop-up Menu window

Hello

I have problems with the taskbar. Every time I tap my left Alt key twice, then left Alt + (1-6) a context menu appears. It's the same thing as right click a tab on your taskbar for anyone who is struggling to recreate my problem. Right Alt does not cause this problem.

It is very bad news for me as the focus of changes in context menu of what I do. I play video games in my free time and have game left keybinds for Alt + 1,2 & 3. I will support on these keybinds quickly all while playing. This will cause the context menu for taskbar activate and I'll be tabbed out of my game.

I searched for weeks trying to solve this problem and I have not found any that is worked. I tried to disable the jump lists. I tried to change the registry for a right click on the taskbar. I saw patches of this forum and several others and nothing I found works.

Recently, I contacted Microsoft to the it Department by phone and said they knew exactly how to fix this and if I have to pay $50 to one of their technicians have to connect to my computer that they would have this problem corrected in the blink of an eye. I find this limit extortion honestly and I hope someone had this problem and can provide steps on fixing it.

Thank you

Thank you for your answer, but the answer you provided is for a question that is different from what I was living. Your link has solved a problem with someone who has the taskbar pop up when their mouse/cursor passes over. My problem was to have a drop down of the taskbar appear whenever I type left Alt + 1/2/3/4 etc.

However, I have since fixed. If there is anyone else out there with this problem, it's a hardware problem with my keyboard. I couldn't get anyone to recreate my problem by pressing left Alt + 1, etc. (although you can recreate my problem to click with the right button on a program in the task bar), so I reset my left Alt key. After resetting my left Alt key this problem does occur more (yay)

Thank you

  • E5 - 573G laptop 56RG breaks down when you try to play a game with the Nvidia GeForce 940 M processor.

    Whenever I try to play a game using the Nvidia card on the laptop Aspire E5 56RG - 573 G computer goes to a blue screen and gives the error "Video_Schedular_Internal_error" before restarting.

    All the games that I tried to run by using the processor 940 m 7200LE crashed the PC.

    Minecraft, Star Trek Online, dungeons and Dragons Online and Neverwinter all crash as soon as the game is loading all the graphics. All the games work very well using the processor 5500 on-board Intel HD graphics but way less detailed than the 940 m from Nvidia is capable of.

    I've updated to the latest Nvidia drivers twice now (Oct and Nov references) with the help of installs clean. I also tried the Nvidia driver on the support page from Acer for the serial number of this PC. I've updated to the last update of the bios on the page of Support as well. Again, the PC crashes when you try to play a game using the Nvidia graphics processor.

    My operating system is windows 10.

    Most of the error information I could find said it is a driver problem or I have a faulty video card. Any suggestion or help would be appreciated.

    Cerealkiddo on Nvidia forums has found a real solution to the problem.

    1. download MSI Afterburner.

    2. change the base to-13 clock and clock from memory to-15.

    3. save in a profile and apply the changes.

    Make sure you only keep afterburner running everything at stake.

    This is Underclocks not GPU slightly and stops the BSOD hangs.

    I played Skyrim for about 4 hours now maxed out graphic with map selected Nvidia and he collapsed once, while before this fix, it would break the pc after 2 minutes of play on any parameter using the nvidia card.

    Keep Afterburner running everything at stake. I turned it off to test and games went immediately to crashing after a few minutes of play. He turned back and was able to play games once again without any problems.

    Your sound card that is more than adequate.
    If the game was previously installed and worked fine then maybe it is not been completely uninstalled.
    I suggest you uninstall the game, look in the registry for any left over entries that can refer to the game.

    Then restart and reinstall the game.

    Alternatively, you can try to install in compatibility mode. If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.
    Use the following steps:
    (1) right click on the program

  • When you try to play .mp4 files in WMP, I hear the sound but the picture is distorted and I can't see the photo in Windows Media Player.

    * Original title: Windows Media PLayer

    I have Windows Media Player version 12 installed but when you try to play .mp4 files in WMP, I hear the sound but the picture is distorted and I can't see the picture.  Please see image attached.

    Even if I see that I can change the version of the file in a different format, I have the same problem with videos on websites that I can not of course change the format before playing these.

    I managed to fix the problem for about 20 minutes by flattening my computer re - install the operating system and this resolved until all updates have been through, and then it disappeared again.  I tried many codecs packs and this still does not help.

    My system is running Windows 7 and Media Player version is 12.0.7601.18840, which tells me that Media Player is the most recent version.

    Please can someone help?

    Open uninstall a program in windows and in the left click on the feature to turn on or off windows. Clear the check box of the window Media Player, and then click ok. This will uninstall the drive, and then restart.

    After restarting the same steps, now, check the box for the same and perform a restart and if all goes well it should solve the problem.

    Note: Make sure that Windows is up-to-date.

    I got a trial of Dreamweaver, but it was too complicated for me.

    It was not the case for cancell the free track so I let it run its course and expires.  He then deleted programs that is very well (I didn't buy), but he has also deleted my Acrobat Reader.

    I have a Dell Inspiron Laptop with Windows Vista Home. Any suggestions? What should I chahnge how I download and save music?

    Hey Taylor09,

    You may find that you are getting this message in Windows Media Player due to one of the following reasons.

    a. you try to play a file that is not supported by the player.

    b. you are trying to play a file that the player does not support, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.

    Step 1:

    Confirm that you are trying to play a supported file type. The following article lists the types of files (formats) supported by Windows Media Player.

    Information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player

    Note that if you tried to play the file type is included in this table, the file might have been encoded with a codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player. If this is the case, Windows Media Player cannot play the file.

    Step 2:

    Download the necessary codec to play the file.

    Alhajji,
    They suggested to do a factory restore, if a valid step to do.  I know this isn't the most fun thing to do, but if you restore the system failing factory (clean install of the operating system).  Then, run Windows update and update drivers.  At this point, you can install a game and test.  If the problem persists, it would look to be a possible hardware problem with the system.
