WirelessPower.exe should be the one mapped to the button. If you pressed the button twice as instructed, it will execute WirelessOnOff.exe to do the actual turn on/off.

Unfortunately WirelessOnOff controls both WiFi and BT. There are a few registry entries that keep track of which function(s) was used last, and it will turn it (or both) on/off accordingly.

I've been looking at how to turn on/off only WiFi independently. Unfortunately there are no standard high-level API as for BT. Which means that the control messages has to be sent to the driver in order to do the turn on/off. Without this information about the driver from Dell/HTC, it pretty hard to get there.
