when i upgraded my PowerShell installation on my Vista, the download
page forced me to install Microsoft File Transfer Manager (FTM)
because the download only comes in that format.

Now, if i press Ctrl+Alt+f, the FTM starts up. How to disable this
shortcut? I need this key in emacs.

I looked in registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft, but
couldn't find it.

Thanks.

6 years later, here is the answer (for other people looking).

You probably have a shortcut on your desktop (or somewhere in your computer) that has "shortcut key" set on the shortcut tab when viewing the properties of that desktop shortcut icon. Focus that field and hit backspace or delete to clear it (it should say "none"). There, fixed it!

Hopefully this help some other unlucky person that suffers from the same issue.

Cheers, Jimmy
