Thanks to perplexity it looks like they are adding a new key to the PC keyboard to open copilot. That's the summary I got.
- ceejayoz 3y agoThey're replacing the right Windows key with a Copilot key.
- bryanlarsen 3y agoIt appears like they're replacing the right control key, not the windows/menu key.
- ceejayoz 3y agoHmm, I was looking at the extended keyboard layouts previously had doubled Windows keys; that's a pretty clear spot to put it there. Looks like a lot of laptops don't have the doubled-Windows keys?

- xnzakg 3y agoHope that's what is happening and that they aren't replacing the right control key.
- DeathArrow 3y agoI only have a left Windows key, in the right I have a menu key.
- Semaphor 3y agoSo that’s what that does. I have to press the FN key as modifier, and it does indeed open the menu. Never felt the need to press it before ;)
- rzzzt 3y agoShift-F10 is an alternative shortcut for the context menu as well.
- WirelessGigabit 3y agoIt's not the same. Because Shift-F10 includes shift you get the extended context menu: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20110809-00/?p=9943 https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20110809-00/?p=99...
- naikrovek 3y agothat sucks. right-win + L quickly locks the computer. going to have to figure out an autohotkey solution for this.
- maximus-decimus 3y agoDoesn't do the exact same thing as left-win + L?
- cesarb 3y agoDepending on the size of the keyboard and on the size of your hands, using the left modifier for that shortcut might need two hands instead of just one; it's very convenient to be able to quickly lock the desktop with only one hand.
- maximus-decimus 3y agoI just tested and,on a full size model m, I can still stretch 2.5 inches after reaching the left+win from my pinkie and l with my thumb. And I have average hand span for a man.
