Right Shift then Control?

05 May 2024, 14:34

Notepad in Windows 11 has the worst feature that I keep accidentally activating -- if you hit Control + Right Shift, it activates the "Right-to-left reading order" option, which I do not have a need for. I wrote the following script to disable it...

Code: Select all

#NoTrayIcon
#SingleInstance force
^RShift:: 
return
...but much to my surprise and frustration, it didn't completely stop it from happening. I figured out it's because the shortcut is also Right Shift + Control. I tried the following...

Code: Select all

#NoTrayIcon
#SingleInstance force
RShift^:: 
return
...but get an error message. Is there any other way I can format the combination of Right Shift + Control? I want to try to avoid remapping RShift & LShift because those have specified uses in other programs. Any help anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated!
