You also need 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)
I discovered that I don't use hyper for anything. But I *could*. Btw,
even with this setup, a lot of mswin key combos leak through, making
them unavailable to Emacs, but if you look at them a little cross-eyed
they can be seen as features rather than bugs. E.g. repeated Alt-tab
cycles through loaded windows apps whether you want to or not.
