Apparently for the moment num lock has to be turned off for SHIFT+HOME to work.
Use Sikuli's NumLock check feature (http://
problem with Env.isLockOn() !!

This bug seems to be related: bug 985395
-------
Version 1.0rc3 (r905)
OS: Windows 7 64
I'm trying to select text using SHIFT + direction key, e.g. UP, DOWN, HOME, END and so on (and then copy content to clipboards).
The sikuli will just move the cursor to desired position, without selecting/
Example:
#open a text editor
type("foo")
type(Key.HOME)
type(Key.END, KeyModifier.SHIFT)

confirmed, does not work on Windows (tested in Win7 32).
Every action together with the shift-key does not trigger the selection, when simulated with Sikuli.
This is so for every GUI element, that is editable.
This works on Mac.
So this is not really a Sikuli problem, but a problem of the used Java features together with the Windows GUI.
Since I have no idea for a workaround, feel free to post a bug.
