I've been using some software for a while that uses Windows+S and I've gotten used to it. I've just recently started using OneNote 2010 and I find that it's hijacked the Windows+S hotkey for doing screen clippings. Cool feature, but I'd rather reprogram OneNote to use a different letter. Otherwise I have to reprogram my brain.

I realize I can disable the OneNote system tray icon thing and that'll probably fix the problem, but I'd rather keep the other OneNote hotkeys (Windows+N and Windows+Shift+N), and wouldn't mind using the screen clipping with Windows+C or something.

Digging through the options I didn't see any way to change this. Hopefully I'm missing something - otherwise, it's kinda arrogant of a software program to hijack a hotkey like that with no option of configuring it.

It's a shame they don't appear to have this feature baked in to the program itself. – Ape-inago Mar 5 '11 at 21:25
Any guess as to where I can find that blessed registry key for Office 2010? – Bruno Brant Mar 31 '11 at 0:27
