I cannot reproduce this.  I tried on 2 different Windows systems, both
with Emacs 27 and Emacs 28, and they both recognize S-F10 fine; with
the provided recipe, S-F10 moves point one character forward, as
expected.

I suspect that your system has some system-wide customizations that
steal this key.  Maybe try to use w32-register-hot-key to work around
that.

If it's something specific to your Windows installation, it will most
probably happen with any Emacs version.
