keyboard - How To Disable PageUp and PageDown Keys on Windows 10



I want to disable PageUp and PageDown keys on Dell Latitude 5590 running Windows 10. This is a work machine that I can't install any third party software on. This answer requires AutoHotkey.



Isn't there a way to do this in regedit.exe?


Answer



Warning: this solution involves editing the registry.




Open regedit.exe and browse to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout\". Add a new binary key value and name it "Scancode Map" (if it already exists, just edit it to change the values which are not zeroes). Enter:



00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
03 00 00 00 00 00 49 E0
00 00 51 E0 00 00 00 00


Reboot and the PgUp and PgDn keys should be disabled.



Cheers!
