If you put this in your .emacs:
(setq w32-pass-lwindow-to-system nil
w32-pass-rwindow-to-system nil
w32-pass-apps-to-system nil
w32-lwindow-modifier 'super ;; Left Windows
w32-rwindow-modifier 'super ;; Right Windows
w32-apps-modifier 'hyper) ;; App-Menu (key to right of
Right Windows)
then you will be able to use these bottom row keys as modifiers but you
still won't be able to bind a function to the bare key (lwindow for
example). You could however bind the function to Super- [a through z] or
even combinations of Ctl, Meta, Super, and Hyper:
(global-set-key [(super w)] 'foo)
As Lennart notes there are some combinations that Windows will trap at
the OS level but some of these are useful. Alt-tab will switch focus
between emacs and some other app from which you may want to copy-paste
for example.
