Doesn't detect the alt gr key on my laptop keyboard #528

I'd like the alt gr key on my laptop keyboard to function as a ctrl key. Sharpkeys doesn't detect the alt gr key when I press it.

Please fix it. Thank you.

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.

Try remapping the RAlt key (E0_38) from the choice box instead. That works for me.
