THAT'S ALL. I am trying to say that this is not guaranteed to work. Some key combinations are strictly not allowed by w32 to be used by applications. And I think I misremembered. I am not sure if it can work with a low level keyboard hook either. There is not very much that we can do to guarantee that it works. If it works it works a bit by chance. Next patch from MS may stop it from working. But you are right, if it works for you with the old versions of Emacs there might be a way to fool w32 here.
