When I type M-x global-set-key RET, then press <lwindow>, the help window pops up and show: <rwindow> runs the command ignore, which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `subr.el'. It is bound to <mouse-movement>, <language-change>, <lwindow>, <rwindow>. I have no chance to press <lwindow>-; to function. Type them in emacs window just produce a ;.
If you put this in your .emacs: (setq w32-pass-lwindow-to-system nil w32-pass-rwindow-to-system nil w32-pass-apps-to-system nil w32-lwindow-modifier 'super ;; Left Windows w32-rwindow-modifier 'super ;; Right Windowsw32-apps-modifier 'hyper) ;; App-Menu (key to right of Right Windows)
then you will be able to use these bottom row keys as modifiers but you still won't be able to bind a function to the bare key (lwindow for example). You could however bind the function to Super- [a through z] or even combinations of Ctl, Meta, Super, and Hyper:
(global-set-key [(super w)] 'foo)As Lennart notes there are some combinations that Windows will trap at the OS level but some of these are useful. Alt-tab will switch focus between emacs and some other app from which you may want to copy-paste for example.
