THANK YOU! That was it It's been driving me nuts. You saved my sanity! BTW, on my 2023 LG Gram, that setting is in the LG Smart Assistant, not the Control Center. Is it the same app and they changed the name?

Now you've got me wondering if it's a function/feature of another program. Start11, perhaps. Will check and report back. Thanks.

Hi all! Does anyone know how to disable the Windows Key Shortcut Guide? It's the window that pops up after you hold down the Windows key for a few seconds - see attached screenshot. I don't want to disable any of the Windows Shortcut Keys - just the window that pops up. TIA for any help.

I tried the Windows Default XL pointer setting and so far, it does not appear to block the tool tips. I guess the pointer size function in the Settings app needs more work. Thanks!

Yes. As stated, I haven't decided what I'll do yet.

Perhaps. But I never said I'd be performing a clean install. It may be the best solution, but I have not reached a decision on that yet.

Yes, I did that. It was/is checked.

First thing I did. They are set properly.

I guess I wasn't clear. My point was the computer wasn't even requiring me to scan my fingerprint. It was just logging me in.

I never said I'd be performing a clean install.

Thanks. I was hoping to avoid the whole backup/clean install process, but it may be unavoidable. C'est la vie!
