So I guess the question is, is there the possibility to lock the windows key on any keyboard via Windows or some software? Das Keyboard 4q doesn't have a winlock key... It's crazy.. there must be a way

Yes it can, but it requires a registry hack.

Complete instructions available here. I'd cut and paste it but there's too much other important information included. While the article is about Win 10, I don't see why it wouldn't apply to Win 11 also.
