When I press the super key in Windows 11, the Start Menu opens.
I don't want that to happen.
I want to unbind the Super key.
I also don't care if all the other S+letter keyboard shortcuts stops working.
I've found a few different ways to set this in the registry, but it seems it's a different key now with Windows 11.
What works on Windows 11?
I've tried:
I have tested on both when in a domain and without, and after a restart, the value is still there, so it's not removed

I've tried:
Powershell:
Set-ItemProperty -Path 'HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer' -Name 'NoWinkeys' -Value 1 -Type DWORD

Code:
PS C:\Users\esben.ID> $path = "HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer"
PS C:\Users\esben.ID> $name = "NoWinkeys"
PS C:\Users\esben.ID> Get-ItemProperty -Path $path -Name $name
NoWinkeys : 1
PSPath : Microsoft.PowerShell.Core\Registry::HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies
