Apple Keyboard on Windows

The great Apple Keyboard works out of the box
in Windows but the layout is not correct in
Portuguese keyboard.
Keys like § ± < > º ^ ~ + * are in wrong place.
I have search on web and i was unable to find the layout.
So i have download the Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator
and built my own layout.

Before proceed install the original Apple drivers:
x86 and 64 Bit


The layout file is here

1 - Unzip and install.
2 - Go control panel
3 - Click in Region and Language
4 - Click on Keyboards and Languages Tab
5 - Click on Change Keyboard...
6 - In Default input language box select Portuguese (Portugal) - Apple Keyboard
7 - Click OK
8 - Exit and reboot
9 - That's all


If you have a different language you can install my layout and open in Microsoft Keyboard Layout creator and change the keys and built the install program. It's easy.

Enjoy;)
