[Solved] How to make the Wi-Fi toggle button on the laptop keyboard inactive?

On my HP probook 4320s laptop, the wi-fi disable / enable button is very inconveniently located - just above the backspace. When printing, I often touch it and the connection is cut off. How can I disable it programmatically? (Option to delete physically - do not offer).
I downloaded a couple of programs for setting the actions of the keyboard buttons, but there is only for the standard keyboard action. For the laptop keyboard, I did not find anything like that. Also on the manufacturer's website.
Maybe just disable this action through the registry, but how?
OS: Windows 7

If in the adapter settings (in the Device Manager, or as it was called there in the seven) there is no something like “Power button” (it can be called, in fact, whatever you like - the fantasy of driver developers), then you need to dig towards hotkey software support 'ev (changes in brightness, volume, going to sleep, etc - did you install some kind of driver or program for this? Usually everyone uses asus's. They didn't - so there's nowhere to dig here (maybe I just don't know something )). also maybe in the BIOS there is something about this.

Control Panel -> Network and Internet -> View network status and tasks -> Poke the wireless adapter -> Properties -> Configure -> Advanced tab
In the "Property" list there is nothing about power management or a shutdown button?

Probably already tried and the advice is useless, but maybe keytweak will help?

Look more closely in the BIOS. Probes should have these settings. On 6735, for example, there are a bunch of them, and whether the button works, and the initial state when turned on, and something else, I don’t remember exactly.
And there EFI and BIOS can be accessed directly from Windows.

You don't have to physically remove it, of course.
But here paper tape is advised .
And here too.

Everything works, the button is disabled and no longer responds to pressing. Try SuSe Linux that comes with the laptop, everything works correctly in it.
