Side Effect of StickyKeys on Client Hotkeys (192556)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition
This article was previously published under Q192556 SUMMARY
When using StickyKeys, you expect to be able to press ALT, then press another key and have it act as if you pressed the ALT-key. When using a Terminal Server Client, this works fine for keys that are processed by the server. However, Hotkeys that are processed by the client (such as ALT-HOME, ALT-PGUP) do not work in this way.
For example, you might expect to be able to press ALT, then Home, and have
the Start Menu appear. However, with StickyKeys on, you may use the normal
shortcuts, such as CTRL-ESC. In other words, if connected to a Server and
it has StickyKeys enabled, press CTRL, then ESC to bring up the Start Menu.
