I was using Win+Arrows to switch between virtual desktops, and
Shift+Win+Arrows to move windows between desktops.
For years.
Decades even.
But SUDDENLY Microsoft decided that having such freedom is too much for the
user, or perhaps it was considered a security risk, I don't know.
I can no longer use these keys in userland.
Even if I disable the idiotic functionality that is bound to them by default,
I can't use these keys for anything else.
