Windows 7 bug - Windows shortcuts activated by RDP session

[acrophile8]

oh man, this issue has been driving me mad for years now... I still can't find a fix!

God I have this on Vista 64-bit as well. My wireless keyboard is pretty old (from 2004) and I was starting to think it was the cause of the problem.

this is a reproducible issue. When will MS address this?

My issue:

1) remote desktop (mstsc) into another machine, in my case a windows Vista, Windows 7 or server 2008 box.

2) use the windows+L key to logg off, and then log in, several times.

3) minimize the RDP session.

4) hit the 'e' key.

If you have explorer window pop up, this indicates a stuck Windows button. It's doing exactly what it should if i was pressing Windows+'e' to launch an explorer window. You have to then press the windows button a few times to release it in software in the OS.

Which version of the OS are you using? And does this only happen when using Remote Desktop?

Windows 7.
