    Blocking Multiple Desktops using "Win+Ctrl+D"


    Hi,We are an educational establishment and we need to stop Students creating multiple desktops to hide what they are doing from Teachers.It is causing multiple problems, including our legal safeguarding requirements to monitor Student activity, and productivity as a whole.I have tried:And the Students can still use the keys and create a "Hidden" desktop.Any ideas?

    :)

    ctrl+d cause icons on desktop flashing

    Sorry i meant win+d, that part with icons flashing has even nothing to do with chrome, it happens, when i pres win+d on desktop.
    Or when i am in windows explore and press ctrl+d.

    I Need My Ctrl+Win+D Keyboard Shortcut Back


    You see, even if I switched it from "Ctrl+Win+D" to "Alt+Win+D", I get the Calendar/Time popping up! Ugh, does anyone have any other suggestions?

    ctrl+d cause icons on desktop flashing

    Yes, the desktop icons flash (mine is 1709) when pressing Win D. Do you consider that a bug, or want a change in behaviour? How often do you use Win D? I hardly ever do..

    However I find CTRL D has no effect on my icons.
