Hi,

The key you are trying to remap isn't Right Alt: E0_2038 is Alt+Gr which is not remappable with SharpKeys because it's a triple-byte scancode.

From the FAQ:
Q: Type a Key shows a code that is E0_nnnn - can I remap this key?
Q: Type a Key for AltGr shows a code that is E0_2038 - can I remap this key?
A: If a scancode has 6 characters, then it is what is known as a triple-byte scancode which is something that cannot be remapped by the Windows Registry. To remap a key like this, you'll need an active remapper like Microsoft PowerToys or AutoHotKeys or the app that came with the keyboard (e.g. Logitech's Options) if available.

Yes, yes, but...

Why doesn't the FAQ suggest to try the Right Alt (E0_0038) manually instead, in this particular case? You know I use that and it works perfectly for me.

This question keeps popping up, as you well know.

Somehow, Microsoft got over the issue of needing Left Ctrl plus Right Alt for AltGr, and interprets an RAlt key press as AltGr for any layout DLL that uses an AltGr key (configurable in MSKLC).
