Host Key Improvement

Post by bjohnson »

Excuse me if this is obvious, but I've been using VirtualBox for 3 days now and the biggest improvement I've made is to change the Host key from the default Right Ctrl to the left Windows key.

Finally a use for the Windows key - Windows + F, full screen, etc.

VirtualBox, File, Preferences.

Hope you're having as much fun as I am with this.

my notebook lacks a windows key and I also heard the OS the key is named after has some functions with it involved as well, so there is a much higher chance of conflicts.
There also is the chance, that is is not available on all platform vbox is/will be targeted.
...there are reason, why right ctrl this is the default
