Disabling Windows 8.1 screen orientation key shortcuts
2
When pressing CTRL + ALT + up/down/left/right, everything on my screen rotates to 90 degrees, -90 or 180 (upside down). Can I disable these shortcuts so I can use them for something else?

Yes, I see that those key shortcut (CTRL + ALT + arrows) were set there. I disabled them, so now the shortcuts do nothing. But I still can't use them in my applications! Simply says I can't use these... Any suggestion?

@drake035 in what applications you can't use them? For example, I disabled the hot keys (right click->graphics options->hot keys->disable ) to use the CTRL+ALT+LEFT/RIGHTin Intellij Idea and it worked. Maybe is an application related issue

Instead of disabling them, define other shortcuts to rotate the screen. Ctrl+Alt + arrows will then be free for something else.
