They removed right alt and context menu for this useless bullshit, and it's hard wired to send a weird three key combination so that you can't even rebind it to right-ctrl properly.
It's such a dumb hack, doesn't Microsoft have any competent engineers anymore?

>weird three key combination
control+alt+f23
It was chosen deliberately so you won't be able to remap it
>>
if your mouse stops working you have no more right click menu

I fucking hate this
What the fuck Microsoft.
>>
>>107679301
how is that key working on linux?
>>
>>107679433
shift+f10 should still work on windows.. I think
>>
>>107679415
Wouldn't AHK remap that just fine?
>>
>>107679442
The end result will be all input>AI>output.
People will no longer talk about using computers, this hardware, that software or OS. It will be a full abstraction through different AI personalities, which given enough time would culminate in one.

More like it'll be another shameful shitstain like cortana that ms tries to pretend never fucking happened
>>
>>107679301
people actually use the context menu key?
>>
>>107679333
Which Dell laptop is this?
>>
>>107679415
It's perfectly remappable. Both i8042prt.sys and usbkbd.sys have been able to do this since their inception.

Shift+F10 has worked perfectly since Windows 95.

It seems for all the tantrums about keyboards ITT, none of you seem to know much about how they work on either the hardware or software level.

I barely have, only when I'm using someone else's laptop and I can't get the touchpad to consistently right-click. That situation would still get infinitively more use than I would ever want to use Copilot. If I must get a keyboard with an AI key and can't disable or remap it, I'd seriously pry it off and glue an immobile cover in its place.
>>
>>107679415
Where can I find a modern keyboard that has F13-F24 on it? Would be useful
Or I guess you could always build your own custom keyboard like those "mechanical keyboard" autists do.
>>
>>107680197
Just buy a keyboard that has a block of "macro" keys. They're far more useful, and easier to configure.
>>
>>107679415
>Days before the Windows logo button was a thing
Ahhhh, I miss that. Not necessarily that layout, but more the pre-useless-keys days.

(At least the Windows logo button got SOME use eventually with shortcuts like Win+R for the run prompt, but jesus.)

>>107680218
The "event" being Windows 95.
