About The Project

Product Name Screen Shot

Prevent Mouse key Back/Forward and Windows Key so you can use them for Push to Talk keys in Discord and other apps.

When switching from Mumble to Discord many years ago I got sick at the mouse buttons not being suppressed. So I made this utility and released it to some friends.

I checked this behaviour again on 2022/01/08 and saw that Discord still does not have an option to suppress these buttons so thought I would release this utility for others to make use of after seeing many online posts requesting such a feature.

Getting Started

Usage

Suppressed actions are:

  • Mouse extra buttons such as Back and Forward in browser, Mouse 3 Mouse 4 etc.
  • Left Windows Key
  • ALT + Scroll Lock toggles the hooks so this combination and is also suppressed.
