    German keyboard alt gr key not working


    I have a German keyboard and I'm using English German QUERTZ layout in the setting. Alt gr key on my keyboard is not working for some keys. I've tried different language input settings and tried changing my regional settings as well but still not working.

    :)

  2. Alt / Alt Gr keys are not working on physical keyboard

    Hi

    My ASUS Laptop's ALT and ALT GR keys are not working. It happened when I installed a Free Software named iSkySoft... That program is now uninstalled, but it still shows up in the StartUp list ( as deactivated though )

    My on-screen keyborad works as well as an external USB Keyboard.

    I have tried Clean Boot - no luck

    I have reinstalled the keyboard driver - no luck

    I ran Malwarebytes - no luck

    I read that a lot of people ran into this problem, and I have followed many suggestions, without succes..

    The only things I can relate to this is the iSkySoft installation or when I restart my PC, sometimes it let me choose between WIN 10 ( disc 3 ) or...... WIN 10 ( disc 3 )... ??? Somehow I have 2 identical versions of WIN 10.. Maybe thats it ??

    I did install the iSkySoft late November 2016, and when I look at my list of programs, no other programs are installed near that date..

    Any suggestions German keyboard alt gr key not working :)

    / Thomas

    NB - It doesn't work in any programs

    ALT + GR not working as intended

    Cannot type the "{" and "[" character. Which is typed by Holding down "ALT GR + 7" and "ALT GR + 8" Key.

    However typing "7" and "8" individually is no problem.

    Also typing "@" which is achieved by holding ALT GR + Q works just fine aswell. Meaning every single key works individually.

    Funnily enough typing with the on Screen Keyboard works aswell for every other combination except for "ALT GR + 7" and "ALT GR + 8"

    Alt Gr not working with the key R

    Recently I started to work on a custom keyboard using MSKLC as a tool.

    I am creating an IPA phonetics keyboard. To make the task easier I used as a base the built-in keyboard United States-International Keyboard, I changed most of the characters that come as default in the
    Alt Gr + key combination, all the combination key worked fine except R key (Alt Gr + R) it does not respond at all. I also used other key combination
    Alt + Gr + Shift +, here, the R key worked fine. Due to the problem, I decided to set the Unicode character that was causing the problem in another key combination and it worked. Since I couldn't fix the problem, I started
    from scratch but the problem continues.

    I wonder if there is any solution to this problem if so, I thank whoever may concern, for his/her help, beforehand.
