Disable keyboard using c#

Question

I'm writing a program which is a webbrowser and disable all the keyboard shortcuts and keys. It is working but not perfectly. i found a thread where i got the code:

Blocking shortcut keys using c#

And my problem is: everytime i open the program, first i have to click in the window or use a shortcut and click in the window again. and after that, it works. but it have to work when i open it so i don't have to click two times...

somebody got an idea?

cheers

EDIT: Okay. I try to explain my problem in another way:

First I open the program. And then I should not be able to press any keys like Win+Tab etc. But I am still able to press keys. Then if I click in the window of my program, press a key and click in the window again, it works. But i want that the program works when I open it so I don't have to click in the window first. I got some code here:

                    }
                    break;
            }

            if (blnEat)
                return 1;
            else return CallNextHookEx(0, nCode, wParam, ref lParam);

        }

        private void KeyboardHook(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            intLLKey = SetWindowsHookEx(WH_KEYBOARD_LL, new LowLevelKeyboardProcDelegate(LowLevelKeyboardProc),
                       System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.GetHINSTANCE(
                       System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetModules()[0]).ToInt32(), 0);
        }

        private void ReleaseKeyboardHook()
        {
            intLLKey = UnhookWindowsHookEx(intLLKey);
        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized;
        }

        private void webBrowser1_PreviewKeyDown(object sender, PreviewKeyDownEventArgs e)
        {
            KeyboardHook(this, e);
        }
    }
}

I hope you know what I mean now Cheers

Answer 1

For all who have the same problem, I got the solution:

You just have to put KeyboardHook(this, e); in Form1_Load() . So the Form1_Load() should now look like this:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized;
    KeyboardHook(this, e);
}

Reason: Everytime the program starts, it should block every combination like Alt+F4 etc. Before we put KeyboardHook(this, e); into Form1_Load(); , the program just blocks the key combinations if a key is pressed in webBrowser1

( webBrowser1_PreviewKeyDown(object sender, PreviewKeyDownEventArgs e) )

If you put it into Form1_Load(); , it starts blocking combinations immediately.

Of course, this won't work with Win+L or Ctrl+Alt+Del because they are hotkeys.

I hope I could help everyone who have the same problem :)
