Damn Intel Hotkeys again....

[kennysarmy]

We thought we'd stopped this by deleting the following registry keys:

 

(reg delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\ /v HotKeysCmds /f)

(reg delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\ /v IgfxTray /f)

(reg delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\ /v Persistence /f)

 

 

But now the new driver install does not put these keys in !!!

 

How are people stopping the little darlings from rotating the screens once the intel driver control panel applet gets installed?

We dn;t but it only happens maybe once every couple of weeks and the next user or teacher can normally set it back.

I always check these when we get new gear in. It seems that sometimes the name changes that they use, so I just add it to my batch files (see below). I also discovered on the last laptop model we brought that it sometimes runs as a service now

 

Get rid of Intel apps in systray

I've got a few different keys that i change or delete to get rid of it from the newer drivers:

User configuration:
Update - HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Intel\Display\igfxcui\HotKeys
HotKeyState = 0
Enable = 0

Computer Configuration:
Delete - HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\igfxOSP
Delete - HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\igfxDTCM
Delete - HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\igfxcui

Update - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Intel\Display\igfxcui\HotKeys
HotKeyState = 0
Update - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Intel\Display\igfxcui\igfxtray\TrayIcon
ShowTrayIcon = 0

 

That's in addition to the old bunch which i also have set. These new ones don't seem to be that well documented around the net it seems. The key ones i think for one version were the ones in the user configuration for current user.

I know this is an old discussion, but the following works on Windows 10 -

 

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Intel\Display\igfxcui\HotKeys

 

Create a new REG-DWORD

 

Name: Enable
Data: 0

 

This doesn't of course remove the icon at the bottom right, but at least it sets the default to Disabled instead of Enabled.
