Evil keyboard...
Ok, so the title is more of an attention grabber.
I yanked off those pesky Windows and Menu buttons of my keyboard but I need to block the hole so crumbs/hair doesn't fall in it in great amounts. How would I do this without making the process irreversable? (I have a problem with irreversable damage to my stuff)

Why don't you just scratch the logos off? Or paste labels to cover them?

Could work...but masking tape would probably be better for ripping it off later.The Yosemite Bear wrote:Small patches of Duct Tape.
It does EVERYTHING
I play games where it is hardly advantagious to smack the Start button key and be thrown to the desktop. I did take them off for a reason.Put them back on?

Ignoring them also works.
The little window on the key doesn't bother me...the key does.Why don't you just scratch the logos off? Or paste labels to cover them?

I also hate the keys with a vengence.

I have a Microsoft Natural Pro keyboard, so I can use the Intellitype software to disable those keys.
