ALT + SHIFT + P is coded to Windows Media Player?

#1 Post by davidspalding » Sun May 11, 2008 11:21 am

I've discovered that in XP Pro with WMP 11 seems to hijack the keyboard combo ALT+SHIFT+P. I'd like to use that on some web sites which also respond to that, but can't find any settings, preferences, or shortcut anywhere on my system where this is set. All of the shortcuts (*.lnk files) that are on my system do not have a shortcut key saved in them.

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Rightclick on the Taskbar, select Toolbars, and UNtick "Windows Media Player". That should do it.
