bben46 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 The use of the tilde ~ is a bit different on non US keyboards. If you use a Non US keyboard, The program looks for a particular 'scan code' from the keyboard to translate keystrokes. Those scan codes can be different on Keyboards in other languages. The hardware makers don't really like to make completely different keyboards and often just use a different set of plastic key caps for various languages - so the location of a key that sends a particular scan code is the same. That scan code is often generated by the key just to the left of the number one, or just below the esc key. Try those on your layout. Another problem is MS disables that scan code when an Infrared receiver is hooked up :rolleyes: - such as with a media center PC - unplugging the IR receiver fixes that. If you have a laptop with a built in IR, you will need to disable the IR in the system settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
