  1. How to change Alt Gr symbols?


    I'm not sure if this falls under help or feature because I need help with a feature, but hey ho. I'm desperate. If this is not right for this sub, I'd appreciate being signposted to the right place.

    I'm based in the UK, Wales specifically, and my job includes using the Welsh language a lot. Our alphabet includes âêîôû and w, y with the lil roof on top that wont show up on my phone keyboard for some reason.

    When i use the Alt Gr for symbols, i end up with áéíóú instead. Is there any way to change this? It's a pain having to insert > symbol every time.

    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 + 0 to 8 makes my window deselect, how to fix?

    I haven't a clue about the gr in the question but click Start, scroll down the list to the W section, look in it for Windows Accessories then for the Character Map, has a lot of choices in it. Some Notebooks/Laptops don't have the Number Pad/Key Pad but may have a combination of keys to get the functions of the Number Pad, have to check the manual.

    Alt Gr key not working on windows 10

    My Alt Gr was working just fine until a little while ago, when it just suddenly stopped working.

    I was writing an essay and when I tried to send it via email, I found out I wasn't able to type the @ symbol (I just copy pasted it) and then realised I actually couldn't do anything related to the Alt Gr key.... how do I solve this?
