  I fucking hate that. Got a new laptop at work and I can’t CTRL+ALT+DEL with one hand because there is copilot key where CONTROL key should be. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

    C’mon they could have at least placed it in place of the menu key instead of rctrl… It’s like they want you to hit it by accident

      Not all laptops have the ability to remap keys in the BIOS/UEFI

        If it’s your own computer there’s always autohotkey. Or Linux. Preferably Linux.

    I would make them get me a different laptop

    that’s a serious ergonomic issue to not have CTRL where it should be. I am not even joking. my RSI wouldn’t let me.

      There’s only one, on the left side.

  Microsoft still riding the high of replacing the Super key with the Windows key back in windows 95, and trying to replicate it.

  There was an “Office” key instead of ctrl right only a few years ago, which was a total fumble. Here’s hoping the same fate awaits the copilot key, that’ll make for fun stories in tech museums in a few years.
