[Solved] Keyboard Issues on Windows 7

Hello,

on my Windows 7 VirtualBox, I cannot use the @-sign and every other key that is accessible by holding "option" on the MacBook Pro keyboard. How do I fix that issue?

Re: Using Copy & Paste in Windows 10 VirtualBox

Hello,

German on both. Context menu does not work, copy & paste does as I just noticed, all signs usually accessed by the "Alt"-button on windows such as "", @, & are not. Keyboard layout on the Windows box is German.

Re: Using Copy & Paste in Windows 10 VirtualBox

Err, no. I want to use the clipboard shortcuts at all and do that nice, handy @-sign to write emails. Does not work on the VM at the moment. In the Devices menu in the virtual machine's menu bar, Oracle VM VirtualBox has a menu item Insert Guest Additions CD Image, which mounts the Guest Additions I...

Re: Using Copy & Paste in Windows 10 VirtualBox

Hello,

I have a German keyboard. Installed the guest additions, now the screen automatically scales with my screen. Whey cool, but the @-sign (for emails) does not work, neither does the copy & paste command. I changed the host-key because I read somewhere that it does solve the issue.

[Invalid] Using Copy & Paste in Windows 10 VirtualBox

Hello,

using MacOS for the first time and installed Windows 10 in the virtual machine. It works fine, but I cannot use copy & paste or do the @-sign. I read that I have to change the host-key but that didn't do anything. How do I fix the issue?
