This often this causes me a lot of headache as I rely heavily on keyboard shortcuts and my effectiveness depends how swift I am with the keyboard. The combination of Windows OS and Apple keyboard layout isn’t always that good. This is a good start but only takes me half the way. Since I really appreciate the hardware in the Apple keyboard I have chosen to also use a dedicated Apple USB keyboard even for my physical Windows computer to keep the differences to a minimum. Since I’m often switch back and forth between Mac and Windows, both on physical computers as well as virtual machines, the differences in keyboard layout and shortcuts has caused me some trouble over the years.
Apple Keyboard for Windows is a small utility improving the experience of using an Apple keyboard on Windows.
