What language are you using? As sometimes keys can differ with different key layouts!I had a look and using the on screen keyboard for Win7 I tested Alt + Win + Enter and XBMC opens. But the main menu does not come back into focus.
2- Your Windows installation is messed up or an application on your PC is stopping the Green button combo from reaching XBMC !
It's really strange. If I am on the main window of XBMC and press Alt + Win + Enter it works, and 'reloads' the main screen. If XBMC is open but not infocus (another window is on top) and I press Alt + Win + Enter XBMC comes back into focus and infront. However if I am in any sub menu and press Alt + Win + Enter nothing happens. Is there a chance that the GSB AutoHotKey script isn't working with Eden RC2? Is there a chance that instead of going to the main window the script is actually just continually bringing XBMC.exe into focus?
I tried GSB_Win32bit_v1.06 & GSB_Win32bit_v1.03 and neither seemed to work besides just refocusing XBMC.exe
Hope this helps and appreciate your patience
This Keyboard.xml is exactly the same as the one in xbmccustomregis v1.2.14 with one fix at the moment, which I added for "Jumpsms" only. I will be adding other fixes but it will be released with the next setup build.

couple more questions for you (dont worry i wont bug you forever).
1) when I use the backslash from my logitech (the MCE Keyboard)it doesnt have any effect at all. I'm trying to use it to switch from windowed to fullscreen. Any idea why this might be or what i can to to troubleshoot? the backslash on my real keyboard does the job.
2) Am I able to control windows from my logitech harmony one? sometimes I just want to use windows explorer really to copy and paste files etc. then switch back into xbmc?
3) I've heard that you can control the windows mouse from the logitech harmony one, do you know where I can get more info on how to do that?
By the way just tell me to get lost if these questions are too off-topic, its just that i find it really hard to use google serach for info on xbmc, i can never seem t find what im after.
Thanks in advance.
1) This is because your harmony is not sending the "backslash or as called Oem5" and in MCERemoteMapper is listed as "OemPipe", use Showkey.exe to find out what your harmony button is exactly sending. In Showkey It should be "VK_Oem_5" and "<backslash>" in the copy field.
2) if a specific window is in focus then yes you can control it by using the navigation buttons but it will not be as easy as using the mouse.
3) Well I have googled it and this sounds like what you need, it is not for Harmony one but its the same software so it should work I guess.
By the way
I hope this helps you all,
Cheers,
