No shortcut keys

[Kentiguous]

I'm using Win98 Second Edition, and am having trouble with shortcut keys
in Start Menu shortcuts. Newly-defined shortcut keys in .LNKs will work,
but will fail to work after a reboot, and shortcut keys in .PIFs will
not work at all. On my Win95 (4.00.950) machine, shortcut key info.
appears to be stored in:

[HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\
Hotkeys]

The above key appears to be 'hidden'; i.e., it can only be seen if the
registry is exported to a file from a DOS boot. Can anyone tell me if
this key exists on a 98SE system? Are there any other settings in 98SE
that control the behaviour of shortcut keys?

Hey, it's the Kenster! Kennerama! King Kenny!!
Sorry nobody could help over in FIDOland (Other than Ken W, and
his "&" suggestion was apparently no help).

Better luck here on (...ominous music...) THE WEB.
