Dear Max & NVDA List:
Trimmed 5,000 bytes of superfluous messages plus redundant list trailer lines, as we are no longer discussing how to select default programs in Windows 10. To disable the hot key for the Game Barr, from anywhere on the PC, press Windows Key plus "I" for the Master Settings Menu. Enter Game Bar in the search box and press enter. Windows responds with Control how Game Bar opens & recognizes your game Press enter. Press the tab key twice, landing on the line Record game clips, screen shots & broadcast with game button. Press space bar to disable if enabled. Now press alt plus F4. Mission Accomplished! If you run Windows 7 or 8.1 the evil Game Bar is not enabled by default! Now you may typewrite with impunity!

I had the same trouble with outlook and I clicked on something and got my G key back but ever since then when I open and close outlook there is a message on the screen that says press control G to ... I have forgotten the rest. This started right after I read a message sent from someone's I phone. I call it my game virus although it doesn't seem to be a harmful virus. I am defining a virus the same way gardeners define a weed. A weed is any plant that is growing where it isn't wanted. To me a virus is any program that runs where and when it isn't wanted. If you ever figure out how to get rid of it pleas share the information with me. 73 (Regards). Max K 4 O D S. I've Never Lost the Wonder.
