  1. Changing keyboard default shortcuts


    Hello everyone


    I am studying German at the moment, so would like to like change some of the keyboard shortcuts to make typing certain words easier. To explain what I mean:


    At the moment, if I push control + alt + a, for instance, I get á. I would like to change the shortcut so that control + alt + a gives me ä. (Please note that I use a Dell XPS15, so I cannot use alt+0228 as a shortcut)


    Is this possible?


    Many thanks


    Stuart

    :)

    How to change the default keyboard layout shortcut.

    Is there a way to change the default keyboard shortcut in Windows 10?

    For example I want to change the shortcut (Windows + D) to show the desktop.

    Is there an external tool to do that?

    Thanks
