This will disable some (most?) of the keys, at least in windows 7 for me.

The desktop navigation hotkeys (like WIN + TAB) cant seem to be turned off, but at least this frees up a few things.

Not ideal. For me I'd rather turn everything off except WIN + R - but anyway, I've learned to live without the run shortcut.
Thanks, James! I've already done that as well. However, the following keys with the Win key as a modifier will still do other things I haven't figured out how to disable yet:

Tab, x, i, o, p, s, n, l, f, g, k, w, u

And there may be others. These are just the alpha keys that I tested with the Win key that I found still do things in Windows, *DESPITE* having enabled the group policy to "Turn off Windows Key hotkeys". Really annoying and misleading to have that group policy option, yet still have so many Windows hotkeys that aren't actually disabled by it. Thanks again, Microshaft! LOL!

By the way, using the following script with AutoHotkey will at least disable the Windows 10 start menu from popping open every time you hit the Windows key.

LWin & vk07::return
LWin::return
RWin & vk07::return
RWin::return
