Disabling the insert key on your keyboard

[Corleone007]

Seriously, the insert key, unless you’re doing stuff in linux, is such a :filtered: waste, mine is so close to the backspace key and it’s SO annoying getting in overwrite mode and typing over a bunch of stuff. Luckily there’s a way to get rid of, modify your windows registry!

Here’s a .reg file to do it for your automatically in Windows Vista (probably xp and 7 as well)

kill-insert-key.reg

Just run this, restart your computer, and cross overwrite off your baggage list!
