Can not remap office and emoji keys on microsoft keyboards #538

Hello,

I have a microsoft ergo keyboard, which has 2 stupid keys. An "office key", which gets you directly to the microsoft office webpage! What a value! And an emoji keyboard key. But beeing a professional, I have no use for such childish thing!

So, I tried to remap them with sharpkeys, but when I click on add key/type key and then click on either of these keys, it displays EO_205B and then tells me it does not know said keys...

Anything you can do to add support for these keys in the next version?

Thanks, Cyrille

No. These are three-byte codes and as clearly stated in the program documentation it is impossible to remap such keys using the registry method (which SharpKeys is based on). Please re-read the documentation to understand this better.
