Venue 11 Pro Windows HW button disabling
Hi, i've got a 5130 venue 11 pro tablet and i noticed that, when the device is suspended it can be awakened by tapping the Windows touch button (that is VERY sensitive) and even if i don't touch the display, it remains on the entire time set for suspension timeout.
there is a way to shut the display off in about 5 sec if i don't login or (better) there is a way to disable the hardware Windows button if the tab is suspended...?

This is working as intended (per Microsoft). For connected standby devices, the Windows Home button will wake them. There is no way to disable the Windows Home button. If you plan to transport the tablet and don't want it to wake, I'd suggest you shut it down rather than use suspend.
I agree with the OP, it is super-annoying to have the tablet wake up intermittently when stuffed in a bag. The same does not happen with a Google Nexus 10 or an iPad (which I have transported in the same bag at earlier times). Would love to hear how to disable the home button from waking up the tablet.

I HATE the windows button and would demand that I can configure it since it is not a hardware button. I only want it to work when the computer is awake because it constantly wakes the device while I'm trying to carry it any where, and is infuriating.
