Windows 8.1 Alt Gr, win key





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}

Recently I got an automatic windows update and it seems it has "bugged" some things out. For example my AltGr (right alt) is not working anymore as it should and when I hold the windows key down it's constatly flashing through metro and desktop, which is preventing some win key shortcuts from not working, eg. win+s, win+r, win+d, ...

    It seems that the microsoft updates are the problem, I have a Samsung laptop aswell and use no virtual machines. I guess we'll have to wait for the fix. Thanks for that link.

  • Ctrl+Alt should be the same as AltGr.

OK I managed to correct the problem and now things work as it should. I payed close attention to this post Polish diacritical signs not working. It seems that the new Synaptics drivers update is the root of this problem.
