gnu emacs on windows - how to maximize without mouse?

GNU Emacs on windows:

I have discovered that my usual way of maximizing a window without the mouse does not work.

I usually (in other apps/editors this works, gvim for instance) would press ALT+SPACE to bring up the top-left corner menu, and then press X (the hot key for maximize).

To restore a window would be ALT+SPACE and then the R key.

For some reason this doesn't work in gnu emacs.... is there anything i can do to stop reaching for my mouse constantly?

I found one answer among many on EmacsWiki:

(w32-send-sys-command #xf030)

The #xf030 is a system command code to maximize the window.
