Answer 1

The documentation says it is a bitwise combination, but you're doing a logical OR.

Try:

if (e.Modifiers & (Keys.Alt | Keys.Control | Keys.Shift))
{
    lbLogger.Items.Add(e.Modifiers.ToString() + " + " +
        "show non-modifier key being pressed here");
}

And I think you can get the actual key with e.KeyCode.ToString().

according to msdn linkt

private void txtShortcut_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Alt || e.Control || e.Shift))
        {
            lbLogger.Items.Add(e.ToString() + " + " +
                "show non-modifier key being pressed here");
        }
    }
