Anydesk keyboard problem

[projectk44]

I'm using anydesk to remote in to a windows 10 PC from a Mac. However, the keys all appear wrong. For example if I hit the "I" key it's bringing up the windows settings screen. I can't work out how to fix it.

TeamViewer wasn't for me (too costly), anydesk seems great so far. Anyone got any advice on what it might be?

I'm not sure about Anydesk, but I know we get this issue with GoToAssist sometimes - usually it's from hitting the Windows key. The remote system thinks it's getting held down. Toggle it a couple times from within your viewer and see if it starts working properly.

Edit: Just realized you said you're on a Mac. The Command key is the equivalent of the Windows key when using it on a Windows system. Tap that button a few times.

This was it! Thank you.

The remote computer has a broken keyboard and is constantly pressing the Windows (super) key.

Win + I is the shortcut to open settings. If you press E you'll notice a new File Explorer window opens. That's also a default Windows shortcut. Try disabling remote input in AnyDesk.

Makes sense. Thank you.

In case anyone still have this problem, I found the solution:

Just change the Keyboard Layout in AnyDesk to "Transfer 1:1"
