How do I disable Hibernate FN hotkey? How do I disable Hibernate?

I want to totally disable hibernate on my computer. I followed the instructions here http://www.intowindows.com/how-to-enable-hibernate-option-in-windows-7/ and it seemed to work because "Hibernate" disappeared from the start menu. However, when I hit the FN hotkey the box still goes into hibernate.
Can I disable this?

Hello,
Out of curiosity, does issuing a "powercfg.exe -h off" command from an elevated Command Prompt (filename: CMD.EXE) make any difference?

Please Help me!!

You Can disable that functionality by disabling "Action Keys Mode" in the BIOS...
Here is the document, that will help you with it... http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02035108&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_US

How to disable hotkeys & action keys?

Hi, I have a Pavilion dv6 3006tx.
I have all these strange "hotkeys" on my laptop doing non-standard things. It's pretty confusing, Alt-F4 doesn't work anymore, for instance, since the F4 key is now a monitor key. How can i make it so all the F1-F12 keys just be F1-F12 keys by default, and I can use the other function by using the fn toggle?
I would also like to disable these so called "action keys". I keep pressing the calculator key when I intend to crouch in a game (ctrl key).
Help, thanks.

็้้How can I disable hotkeys?

How can I disable FF hotkeys as there are problems when I use other programs at the same time?

Thanks a lot for the answer Shmoopie99,
"If your plugin is running as a separate process it should not be getting any events meant for Photoshop if your plugin process is active."
Yes that is almost correct. I dont want to get into useless details but I have no problems there and events meant for Photoshop dont disturb me.
"If you're spinning an event loop in your Photoshop side of things, only process UI update events - ignore any other events such as input events."
I cant ignore input events because I need them. The problem is not my tool getting input events from Photoshop, is Photoshop the one geting events comming to me.
The only connection to Photoshop I keep in my process is that is parented to photoshop using the HWND handler.
I must insist in the question then... How to make Photoshop wait while my window is in focus? How to disable accelerators?

First, read the documentation of Toplink how to configure their logger.
Second, it look like that you're creating a new session everytime on every query? That is very expensive. Your code logic might need a review.

Hypervisor disables Sleep and Hibernate on Windows Server 2012R2! Why? How to solve?

Hi,
according to the official documentation of Microsoft, Hyper-V does not block Sleep and Hibernate on Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2.
From powercfg I get the following output:
The following sleep states are not available on this system:
Standby (S1)
The system firmware does not support this standby state.
An internal system component has disabled this standby state.
Hypervisor
Standby (S2)
The system firmware does not support this standby state.
An internal system component has disabled this standby state.
Hypervisor
Standby (S3)
An internal system component has disabled this standby state.
Hypervisor
Hibernate
An internal system component has disabled hibernation.

Hibernation is not available.
The hypervisor does not support this standby state.
Fast Startup
Hibernation is not available.I already installed a graphics device driver to prevent the graphics device from blocking Sleep and Hyper-V. So this should not be an issue. What can I do to enable Sleep and Hibernate?Regards,Daniel

personally... I'd just...
That's what I'm zeroing in on. I'm sure that whatever you and Mark do in your environments makes perfect sense in those environments. But, those are two environments out of millions. For my "personally", I'd like to do whatever I can to prevent these forums
from becoming a place where someone doing things differently is intimidated out of posting further, by telling them things like "that's not what you want" without really knowing what it is they want. I know of at least one popular tech forum like that, and
it's now dominated by halfmins who are revered for their post count, not because they know anything. I'm not trying to say that's what either of you are trying to do or that you're not both perfectly capable experts. It's just that there are certain behaviors
I think we should all rise above on these forums.
I maintain that the real issue here is that, as the OP points it, it's advertised to work, therefore it should work. Workarounds and alternate solutions are nice, and I don't think anyone is complaining about them just being presented, but ultimately they're
not the point.
I understand your position about just shutting it down and I'm sure that's valid in the situations you encounter. What happens to me is that I'm hammering on some code for CoreFig in my Win7 box while testing on a Hyper-V Server in the background. The phone
rings, I get distracted, and six days later, I still have a Hyper-V Server running full-bore that I'm doing absolutely nothing with. It has to be on a physical machine because I can load Hyper-V Server in a VM, but I can't put active VMs on it. It has to be
on Hyper-V Server and not Client Hyper-V because A) it's meant for Server and uses features only found on Server and B) I tell end users that it was tested on Server and being truthful is sort of my thing. So, I think I have a valid use case for sleep. I have
to assume there are any number of others out there.

How do I disable certain hotkeys?

I'm trying to disable certain hotkeys because I keep pressing them by accident. I press CTRL+Q when I was trying to close tab (CTRL+W) and firefox closes completely.
Similarly, when I'm typing in a web form, and accidentally press ctrl+k (Emacs habit), the page suddenly goes to google. BTW, it only started doing that when I removed the search box from the toolbar, otherwise it would focus the google box in the top right and I'd have to mouse back to the form, which is still annoying.
I'd like to disable any hotkey in Firefox. Not change, but disable completely. I found an addon which disables ctrl+q but that doesn't solve my ctrl+k issue.
I use Firefox on both Linux and Windows.

What the Disable Ctrl-Q Shortcut extension does is set a disable attribute to the #key_quitApplication shortcut.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/disable-ctrl-q-shortcut/
Try to modify the bootstrap.js file in the disable_ctrl_q_shortcut-20120821-fx-linux.xpi ZIP archive to disable the #key_search shortcut.<br />
You can use the DOM Inspector if you want to disable more keyboard shortcuts.
<br />
<pre><nowiki> toggle: function(window, value) {
var shortcut = window.document.getElementById("key_quitApplication");
if (shortcut)
shortcut.setAttribute("disabled", value);
var shortcut = window.document.getElementById("key_search");
if (shortcut)
shortcut.setAttribute("disabled", value);
</nowiki></pre>

How do you disable the right shift hotkey that goes to mission control?

I want to change the right shift button as a hotkey for mission control. It is really annoying that whenver I want to type a '?', I use the right shift key, but it goes to mission control. I am fine with the 3 finger swipe up for mission control....I don't need more options for this feature.

Never mind, I figured it out. If anyone else has the same problem, go to System Preferences and then click Mission Control. Change the Mission Control keyboard shortcut to nothing. It will still go to mission control with the 3 finger swipe up. You can then go back and change it to another option.
I did this and it no longer automatically goes to mission control with right shift.

[SOLVED]How to disable USB autosuspend?

Hello!
A long time ago I installed Arch on my notebook and configured it's power saving using laptop-mode-tools. I also installed pm-utils for suspend/hibernate. USB autosuspend worked correctly - on battery every device (including mouse) was suspending and no autosuspend at all on AC. Some time ago, I don't remember when exactly, it stopped working. Now, no matter what, my mouse turns off after 2 seconds.
Here is what I did:
1. Checked my laptop-mode-tools configuration (removed comments for brevity):
cat /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/usb-autosuspend.conf
DEBUG=0
CONTROL_USB_AUTOSUSPEND="auto"
AUTOSUSPEND_USE_WHITELIST=0
AUTOSUSPEND_USBID_BLACKLIST=""
AUTOSUSPEND_USBTYPE_BLACKLIST=""
AUTOSUSPEND_USBID_WHITELIST=""
AUTOSUSPEND_USBTYPE_WHITELIST=""
BATT_SUSPEND_USB=1
LM_AC_SUSPEND_USB=0
NOLM_AC_SUSPEND_USB=0
AUTOSUSPEND_TIMEOUT=2
So far looks good.
2. According to wiki, pm-utils might conflict with laptop-mode-tools. So I created a dummy file in /etc/pm/power.d for each of the scripts from /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d . For the moment I don't care if I disabled too much. I just hope laptop-mode-tools covers all powersaving features.
ls -l /etc/pm/power.d
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 08-08 19:58 hal-cd-polling
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 08-08 19:58 intel-audio-powersave

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1642 2013-05-30 xfs_buffer*
Still no luck.
3. As I found out, there is some kernel option CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME, which allows the kernel to autosuspend usb devices: source. It's on:
cat /proc/config.gz| gunzip | grep CONFIG_USB_SU
CONFIG_USB_SUPPORT=y
And as I read here I can disable usb autosuspend using boot parameter. So i edited my /etc/default.grub, and now my grub.cfg looks like this:
sudo cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | grep usb
linux /boot/vmlinuz-linux root=UUID=d18cd4a4-2ebf-4874-80ff-8520016b0ed4 rw quiet usbcore.autosuspend=-1
linux /boot/vmlinuz-linux root=UUID=d18cd4a4-2ebf-4874-80ff-8520016b0ed4 rw quiet usbcore.autosuspend=-1
linux /boot/vmlinuz-linux root=UUID=d18cd4a4-2ebf-4874-80ff-8520016b0ed4 rw quiet usbcore.autosuspend=-1
After rebooting I checked:
cat /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/autosuspend
-1
Cool! It should work! But... it doesn't. The mouse still goes to sleep after 2 seconds, and:
kolzi@kolzi-laptop ~ % for i in /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/autosuspend_delay_ms; do cat $i;done
2000
2000
2000
2000

2000

2

Where doesn't this 2 (or 2000) come from? How disable this suspending and let laptop-mode-tools control it? What's going on?
Last edited by PL_kolek (2014-08-09 13:14:23)

For now I run
sudo systemctl disable laptop-mode.service
and changed in /etc/laptop-mode/laptop-mode.conf
ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE_TOOLS=0
After rebooting I still have the same issues. Also, even after disabling laptop-mode-tools, the brightness changes after unplugging the laptop, so either the laptop mode wasn't disabled at all, or there is something else 'helping' me with powersaving.
@brebs
Thank you, but it looks for me more like a workaround than a solution. It could work, but it doesn't tell me what disables my mouse and where is the root of the problem.

How to disable IBM Thinkpad 600X's tracking point ?!

To whom it may concern:
How are you? This is Daniel. I have an IBM Thinkpad 600X notebook. The tracking point already doesn't work. I want to disable it and use an external mouse. Could you please give me a favor how to solve this problem? According to IBM manual, "Holding F1 and turn on the system, then modify its BIOS !!!". I already try serval times, but this method doesn't work, the screen always show me "ERROR CODE 8611" at first, and then automatically enter into Windows XP system. NEVER SHOW ME ITS BIOS MANUAL !!!. I think perhaps there has an another HOTKEY to wake up the BIOS. I am looking forward to your help. Have a good day.
With best regards,
Daniel

Yes, it can be hard to gain access to the BIOS when the Trackpoint error (8611) occurs. About the best thing I can suggest, short of removing the keyboard, would be to hold down the F1 key, while at the same time applying constant pressure on the Trackpoint in one direction (up, down, left or right) before you turn the laptop on. Continue to hold the F1 key and applying pressure on the Trackpoint while the system boots. You should eventually see the Easy-Setup (BIOS) menu. Then you can release the key and Trackpoint. Note that you may not be able to select the BIOS menu options with the Trackpoint; use the arrow key instead. When the selected option is highlighted, press the Enter key.
To (semi-)permanently disable the Trackpoint you need to access the "Config" menu and then press the CTRL-D key. That will bring up a hexadecimal display, "System Configuration Edit Utility". You then need to change the value in the third row and first column (i.e., offset 200) from the "02" that is already there to "01". Again, use the arrow keys to move the cursor to that location and then type in 01. Once that's done, press the F2 key (Save) and the screen will flash and the cursor will return to the 000 location. Then press the Escape key twice. That will put you back to the main BIOS display. Use the arrow keys and select the Restart option and confirm it.
The Trackpoint should stay disabled until you reset the BIOS. That's what I mean by semi-permanently. If for any reason you need to re-enable the Trackpoint at a later date, change the "01" back to "02" or simply choose the Initialize option in the BIOS Config menu.
edit: I had forgotten that I set up a web site with this information awhile back

How to disable swapfile.sys on Windows 8?

It's possible to disable pagefile.sys and hiberfil.sys, however, there does not appear to be information on how to disable
swapfile.sys.
The file swapfile.sys appears to be an additional paging file from Metro and I'd like to know if there is a way to disable it as well.

hiberfile is EASY to get rid of
1) disable fast start up
2) disable hibernation
3) disable hybrid sleep (this trips up most people) as hybrid sleep writes all the data as IF it's going to hibernate but then goes to sleep. This is in case of power failure. Then the system can resume from a hibernated state with no data/session loss
No reason to disable pagefile.sys, it's been proven OVER and OVER that 100% disabling the pagefile system does more harm than good and creates instability in windows - even if you had 64TB of RAM.. many programs actually use and REQUIRE the pagefile to page
out code thats idle.
Even just a minimal 400MB pagefile on the C: drive will keep windows happy. That lets it make a mini dump if needed and allows programs that req a swap file to function normally.
Swapfile.sys, you can not turn off. That's just part of Windows 8. I'm not sure WHY it's there.. I loaded a TON of metro apps, and they hogged 6GB of memory, and they were being swapped to my PAGEFILE. So I'm not understanding what it's there for

How to determine the exact key pressed when numlock disabled?

Hi there,
I am trying track the keyboardevent that triggered by pressing numpad keys as hotkey, but when the numlock is disabled, the same keycode, same keylocation was gotten as pressing in the standard keyboard. how can I determine if the numpad was pressed or the other control keys were pressed?
Thank you!

How to disable mouse actions for Spotlight?

Spotlight causes me problems, because it is activated, when the middle button of my three-button mouse is pressed. Many X11 and Windows applications have some functions for the middle button and then Spotlight grabs it and nothing else works as it should. Hence, I would like to disable all such mouse functions in Spotlight and other mouse bindings and use mouse only as a pointing device, as it originally was intended to. How can this be done - I cannot find any such hotkeys etc. defined in System Preferences.
ArNO

ArNo,
the central button can be programmed to do anything from System preferences ->Keyboard and Mouse-> Mouse. Use the drop down box to select "none" if you dont want the middle button to do anything.
If you use a lot of x11 apps that require a different set of actions than the normal mouse environment, I would consider creating a separate user account and turn on fast user switching in system preferences->accounts.
Then you can customize the user environment (mouse actions, etc) to be utilized differently for each unique operating environment.

How to Disable a PARTICULAR action key?

Hi,
I know how to turn off action keys from BIOS. What i want to is just disable the help action of the F1key. I basically want it o have no fuction (so that it would perform the assigned function for the game) like the f5 key on my Envy 15t. I use the f1 key in games, since every time i press it it opens up the help, i want to disable it. However, i do not want to disable the rest and want to be able use them without having to press the FN key.
I am not sure if there is a solution to this problem but i would still love to hear some suggestions.
Thank You.

Hi,
If just for Windows XP: you should be able to disable the help stuff by disabling the Help and Support service. (start->type services.msc->press enter).
And for Windows 7 (Vista could be the same):
