How to assign new key on keyboard
s,d and g keys do not work on my keyboard. I would like to assign these keys to key combinations of other keys. For example pressing x key two times pretends like s key. Is there any software or windows settings does that ?

It would make more sense for you to repair your keyboard or buy a new one.

This is laptop keyboard. I tried to fix it however I could not disassembly enough to reach keyboard. Computer repairmen ask me to pay about $100 for fixing it. Laptop itself worth $300

Hilarious, "pressing x two times to get s key". And so what happens if you actually want two x characters in a row? This is about the funniest question I've seen here. But in all seriousness, pay the $ to sort this out. You'll drive yourself nuts dealing with shortcuts like that.

Buy a USB keyboard and use that: you can use an on-screen keyboard for the occasions when you don't have it with you.

What make and model of laptop is it? Ebay has loads of replacement keyboards, they are fairly easy to replace even for a novice.

Recenlty I realized that we can type characters with their ASCII code using ALT key.
Lets say we would like to type "s" character. If you type 0115 at numpad while holding ALT key will type "s" key.
You can do ALT + 0100 for "d".
You can see the full list here
