What to Know
- Download Microsoft Power Toys, open it, and then go to Keyboard Manager > Remap a Key or Remap a Shortcut .
- To reset keys and shortcuts to the default, select the Trashcan icon beside the entry.
- If you have an external keyboard and mouse, use the Windows Mouse and Keyboard Center tool to customize both.
This article explains how to remap a keyboard in Windows 10. Instructions apply to external keyboards and the built-in keyboards of Windows-based laptops.
How to Change a Keyboard Layout in Windows 10
The easiest way to customize your keyboard is by using PowerToys, a free program made by Microsoft. It allows you to reassign keys and change your keyboard shortcuts using a simple interface. PowerToys also enables you to personalize the layout and appearance of the operating system.
Can You Reassign Keyboard Keys?
Follow these steps to reassign keys in Windows 10:
Download Microsoft Power Toys and install it on your PC.
Open Power Toys and select Keyboard Manager in the left sidebar.
Select Remap a Key .
If the keyboard options are grayed out, select the Enable Keyboard Manager switch.
Select the Plus ( + ) under Key .
Under Key , choose the key you want to reassign from the drop-down menu, or select Type and enter a key.
Under Mapped To , choose the new key. If you want to switch two keys, repeat steps 5 and 6 to create another entry, reversing the keys.
To reset the key to its default, return to this screen and select the Trashcan icon beside the entry.
Select OK .
Select Continue Anyway , if you see a notice telling you you'll no longer be able to use the keys for their original purpose.
How to Remap Windows 10 Shortcuts
You can change keyboard shortcuts for specific apps or your whole system:
Open Microsoft Power Toys and select Keyboard Manager in the left sidebar, then select Remap a Shortcut .
Select the Plus ( + ) under Shortcut .
Choose the key you want to reassign from the drop-down menu under Shortcut or select Type and enter a keyboard shortcut.
Under Mapped To , choose the new key or shortcut.
Under Target Apps , enter the name of an app (if you leave this section blank, the change is applied system-wide).
How to Reset Keyboard Mapping
To set your key reassignments back to the defaults, go to Keyboard Manager in PowerToys, select Remap a shortcut , and then select the Trashcan icon beside the entry you want to delete.
How Can I Customize My Keyboard?
PowerToys lets you reassign keys and shortcuts, but some keyboards come with customization software that gives you even more control over how your device works. For example, you could create multi-key macros and insert blocks of text with a single keystroke. You can customize both with the Windows Mouse and Keyboard Center tool if you have an external keyboard and mouse.
If you need to reassign a key because it isn't working, you can enable the Windows 10 on-screen keyboard to access all keys.
Remapping a keyboard on a Mac works differently than on a Windows PC. While you can't wholly remap the keyboard, you can set up custom shortcuts. Go to the Apple menu > System Preferences > Keyboard and click the Shortcuts tab. Select a shortcut and highlight its existing key combination. Then, type in your new key combination, which will replace the previous shortcut.
If you want a hotkey to access a different shortcut or command, download the Windows Mouse and Keyboard Center and connect the keyboard you wish to configure. Open the Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center and choose the key you'd like to reassign, then select a command from the command list to become the key's new function.
You don't need to remap a Windows PC keyboard for use on a Mac, but you'll need to be aware of the Windows keyboard equivalents for Mac's special keys . For example, the Windows key is equivalent to the Mac's Command key. Also, key locations are different on a Windows keyboard. If you want to reassign a Windows keyboard key's location for use with your Mac so it's easier to find, go to the Apple menu > System Preferences > Keyboard . Select Modifier Keys , then switch the keys' functions to your liking.

How to Remap Keys on Windows 10
Using a free open-source software program
There are a couple of reasons why you might want to remap keys on Windows 10—the layout might feel wrong or the keys might be broken. Unfortunately, Windows doesn’t allow you to remap keys directly. You can map them by altering the registry yourself, which we wouldn’t recommend, or by using third-party software.
One of the easiest keymapping software to use on Windows is SharpKeys . This free and open-source software allows you to map one or multiple keys to another key, although it only supports keyboard keys as mouse or touchpad keys aren’t supported. Here’s how to remap keys on Windows 10 using SharpKeys.

Installing SharpKeys on Windows 10
A Windows installer file for SharpKeys is available on the SharpKeys GitHub repository, as is a portable version you can download to use on flash storage drives to take your SharpKeys installation with you. SharpKeys is open source, so you can choose to download the source code and compile it yourself if that’s your preference.
- To remap your keys on Windows 10, download and install the latest version of SharpKeys from the releases section of the SharpKeys GitHub repository. The installer file is listed as an MSI installer file , or you can download and extract a portable ZIP version .

- Once SharpKeys is installed, open it from your Windows Start menu or run the executable file from the extracted folder for the portable version. SharpKeys will warn you that using it will modify the registry, adding a single key to it to remap your keys. Press OK to accept the warning and allow SharpKeys to do this.

The main SharpKeys window will open once the warning has been accepted.
Remap Keys on Windows 10 Using SharpKeys
Once SharpKeys is installed, you can use it to begin remapping your keyboard keys. Before you start, however, you should check whether your keyboard locale is correctly set for your location. This might resolve issues when the at sign keys and quote keys on your keyboard are swapped over, for instance.
You can check this by right-clicking the Windows Start menu and clicking Settings. From here, click Time & Language > Language and check the locale listed under the Preferred Languages section.

If your locale is correct and you still need to remap other keys, you can start using the SharpKeys software.
- To begin remapping keys in SharpKeys, click the Add button in the main SharpKeys window.

- In the Add New Key Mapping window, you can select which keys you want to map. You map the key choices from the left-hand list to the physical keys listed in the right-hand list. You can scroll through and select these manually, or click the Type Key button under each section to find them automatically. Press OK when you’ve completed your key mapping.

- You can repeat the above step to map multiple keys. To edit any of the choices you’ve made, select them from the list in the SharpKeys main menu, then press the Edit button.

- Select an item and press the Delete button to remove that particular key mapping from your SharpKeys list. To remove all your key mappings at once, press the Delete All button instead.

- The key mappings you create, edit, or delete using SharpKeys won’t apply until you write them to the registry. To do that, press the Write to Registry button in the main SharpKeys window.

Exporting Your SharpKeys Configuration to Other PCs
You may wish to export your SharpKey settings to other Windows 10 PCs if you want to use your remapped keys on multiple devices. You might want to do this before you reset and reinstall Windows on a PC using SharpKeys, too.
- You’ll need to export your SharpKeys configuration first. Open SharpKeys and click the Save Keys button in the main window to begin.

- In the Save SharpKeys Key List window, select a suitable location to save your SharpKeys configuration file. Give it a memorable name, then press Save to save the file.

- Transfer the SharpKeys configuration file (in the SKL file format) to another Windows PC with SharpKeys installed. Open SharpKeys on that PC, then press the Load Keys button in the main window.

- Locate your SharpKeys configuration file in the Open SharpKeys Key List window and select it. Press Open to load the configuration file and add the new keys to SharpKeys.

- The exported configuration will be imported into SharpKeys, with the key list updating to show the new key mappings. Press the Write to Registry button to write this updated list to the registry.

Using Your Keyboard With Windows 10
If you remap keys on Windows 10, you can bypass broken keys or a poor layout, but that isn’t the only way you can use your keyboard more effectively. One method is to try using keyboard shortcuts , reducing your reliance on your PC mouse or trackpad.
That depends, of course, on whether you have a fully working keyboard. Remapping keys is one option, but you may need to look at more drastic ways to fix a water damaged keyboard if you’ve spilled a drink over multiple keys. If you have your own keyboard repair tips to share, please leave them in the comments below.

How to remap keyboard keys on Windows
Need to rebind a key on your Windows PC or laptop? We'll show you how.
There are many reasons why you might want to rebind your keys since it allows you to change how your computer interprets each keystroke. Whether you want to reroute a broken or missing key, set up a cool keyboard layout, or trigger powerful macros on a brand-new custom keyboard , we’ll show you how to rebind keyboard keys on Windows, as well as how to remap shortcuts to a new keyboard combination.
What to know before remapping your keys
Customizing keyboard shortcuts can be a great way to level up your productivity, and the best way to do that is with Microsoft PowerToys. This method will work across both Windows 10 and Windows 11 and requires no registry edits or third-party software.
However, PowerToys is not available on Windows 7/8, so this method won’t work on those versions or older. If you’re still on Windows 7/8, we recommend you upgrade, especially while Windows 10 is still available as a free upgrade . Windows 11 Pro is also regularly available at a significant discount and brings a host of other productivity improvements for power users. But for PowerToys, you just need Windows 11 Home.
For those seeking some alternative productivity hacks, many modern keyboards or gaming mice include third-party tools for configuring more complex macros. And if you are comfortable making registry edits, you could also disable intrusive suggestions in Windows 11 for a more streamlined Windows experience. For most people, though, PowerToys is the best solution.
What is Microsoft PowerToys?
Microsoft provides a first-party solution for remapping Windows keyboard keys with PowerToys, a collection of tools designed to help Windows 10/11 users fine-tune their experience. Microsoft regularly updates PowerToys with popular third-party tweaks or customizations. This includes a Keyboard Manager where you can remap your keys, along with a Text Extractor for getting text from images and more.
PowerToys does require installation, so you’ll need administrator access, but it’s free on the Microsoft Store.
How to install PowerToys from the Microsoft Store
- Open the Microsoft Store by searching for it in the Start menu.
- Enter PowerToys into the top search bar and select the first result.
How to install PowerToys from Github
As an alternative to the Microsoft Store, you can install PowerToys from Github. This is useful when you aren't signed in with a Microsoft account on your PC or if you want to install a previous or beta version. To install from Github, follow these steps:
- Browse to the GitHub releases page for Microsoft PowerToys .
- Locate the release version you want. You may find it easier to browse releases by tag. To do this, select Tags at the top.
- We recommend you install per user.
- Make sure you select the correct architecture for your PC. If you’re unsure, download the x86 version.
- Once downloaded, open the executable and follow the installer’s instructions.
How to use PowerToys to remap keys
PowerToys includes a whole feature suite designed to help improve your Windows experience, so there’s plenty to play around with , including remapping keys. Once you’re in PowerToys, follow the steps below to set up a basic keyboard binding:
- Click Open Settings to enter the main interface.
- Verify that the Enable Keyboard Manager toggle is enabled. (It should be on by default.)
- Select Remap a Key .
- Click Select on the left and right-hand side boxes.
- Choose the key to remap and the key to press. You can also select the key from the dropdown menu.
- Add a new row with two boxes labeled Select .
- Enter a key to remap (left) and a target (right) by scrolling through the menu or by pressing the key on your keyboard.
- Verify that your new keybinding has appeared in the main PowerToys Keyboard Manager window.
- Close PowerToys and try out your keybinding.
Remapping a keyboard shortcut in PowerToys
PowerToys also enables you to remap an entire keyboard shortcut. Here’s how to do that:
- Open PowerToys and select Keyboard Manager in the sidebar.
- Verify that the Enable Keyboard Manager toggle is enabled.
- Using the left-hand side Select button, choose the shortcut to remap. You can hold down multiple keys at once here. I’ve selected Ctrl + C to remap in this example.
- Optionally, enter the name of an app in the Target App field. This limits the rebinding to a specific application. The rebinding will be global if left blank.
How to remove a keybinding
Removing a keybinding is similar to adding one. Here's how:
- Instead of pressing + (plus) to add a mapping, press the trash can on the right-hand side of your existing keybinding to delete it.
Playing with PowerToys
As we’ve seen, it’s possible to rebind individual keys and keyboard shortcuts with PowerToys. There’s a lot of potential for advanced functionality here, especially rebinding shortcuts in specific applications. There is also no limit on how many keys or shortcuts you can rebind. So get creative and set up some cool macros to streamline your day-to-day workflow.
This just scratches the surface of what’s possible with PowerToys, and Microsoft is updating PowerToys constantly . Early versions of new Windows customization features are also often developed there before making it into the mainstream release of Windows.

How to Remap Keys and Shortcuts on Windows 10
While the standard Windows keyboard layout has remained the same over the years for a good reason, there can be times when you wished that you could tweak that layout to your preference. Whether one of the keys on your keyboard suddenly stopped working or you want to put the lesser-used keys to better use, being able to remap keys and shortcuts is a great way to personalize your keyboard experience.

Until now, Windows users had to rely on third-party software to remap keys or create custom shortcuts. But with Microsoft’s PowerToys , remapping keys has become a safe and no-frills experience.
So, without further ado, let’s see how to remap keys and shortcuts on Windows 10 with PowerToys.

Setting Up PowerToys
To remap keys and shortcuts on Windows 10, you need to first download and install PowerToys on your PC. Read on to learn how.
Step 1: Head over to the Microsoft PowerToys releases page (link below) on GitHub. There you’ll find the most recent release under the Assets. Look for a ‘.exe’ file with a name similar to ‘PowerToysSetup-0.37.2-x64.exe’.
Download Microsoft PowerToys

Step 2: Once downloaded, open the setup file and follow the on-screen instructions to install PowerToys on your PC.
Step 3: Launch PowerToys, and toggle on the ‘Run at startup’ option.

Note: PowerToys needs to run in the background for key remapping to work. Thus, for a fluid experience, it’s recommended to allow it to launch at the startup.
Now PowerToys will start and run automatically in the background when you start or restart your PC.
How to Remap Keys in Windows 10
Once the PowerToys is set up, you can now remap any of the keys on your keyboard in the PowerToys keyboard manager settings. Here’s how.
Step 1: Launch PowerToys on your PC. Go to the Keyboard Manager tab on your left and toggle on the ‘Enable Keyboard Manager’ option if it isn’t already.

Step 2: Tap on the ‘Remap a key’ button under Remap keys.
Step 3: In the Remap keys window, click on the ‘+’ button to add a key mapping.

Step 4: Now add a key you wish to remap. You can either pick the key to be remapped by using the scroll-down menu or click on the Type button and press the key on your keyboard.

Step 5: Under Mapped to, assign a key or shortcut to be performed by using the Type button or the scroll-down menu. There’s also an option to disable the key using the scroll-down menu.
To assign a shortcut, you can use the Type button and press the key combination. For instance, I have assigned the Shift (Right) key on the keyboard to perform ‘Ctrl+S’, which is used to perform the Save function on most Windows programs.
Step 6: Finally, press the OK button at the top to confirm the key remapping. When prompted with a warning message, click on Continue Anyway.

That’s it. Now the Shift (Right) key is remapped to perform the Ctrl+S shortcut. Similarly, you can remap more keys by using the ‘+’ button. To remove a remapped key, open Remap key window again and click on the trashcan icon next to the remapped key.
How to Remap Shortcuts in Windows 10
Similar to remapping keys, PowerToys also allows you to remap shortcuts on Windows 10. This can be handy if the existing shortcuts are not working or assign custom shortcuts in a particular app or game. Read on to learn how.
Step 1: Launch PowerToys again and go to the Keyboard Manager tab. This time click on the ‘Remap a shortcut’ button under ‘Remap Shortcuts’.

Step 2: In the Remap Shortcut window that opens, click on the ‘+’ button to remap a shortcut. Again, you can use the scroll-down menu or the Type button. In this case, we’ll be remapping the ‘Ctrl+F’ shortcut (a shortcut used for finding words in browsers and programs) to the ‘F4’ key.
Step 3: Under Target Apps, you can specify apps in which shortcut modification should take effect. If left blank, the change will be applied to every app.

Step 4: Finally, press OK at the top to apply changes.
Again, you can delete any of the remapped shortcuts by tapping on the trashcan icon next to the remapped shortcut.
Bonus: Shortcut Guide in PowerToys
Apart from remapping keys and shortcuts, PowerToys also presents you with a neat guide about the shortcuts that involve using the Windows key.
To enable this guide, launch PowerToys, go to the Shortcut Guide tab on your left, and toggle on Enable Shortcut Guide.
Once enabled, you can tap and hold the Windows key for about a second to view the overlay showing keyboard shortcuts, including common Windows shortcuts, taskbar shortcuts, window controls, and more. Alternatively, you can also use Windows Key + ? to overlay the shortcut guide.

You can further tweak the appearance of the overlay guide under ‘Appearance & behavior’. Again, PowerToys needs to be running, and the Shortcut Guide needs to be enabled for this to work.
Endless Possibilities
With this level of keyboard customization, you can remap the entire keyboard or some elements of it to your liking. And besides key remapping, PowerToys is full of other neat features such as resizing images in bulk , create the multiwindow layout, identify colors, and more.

How to remap keys using Windows 10 PowerToys Keyboard Manager
Share with Your Friends
Your email has been sent
Version 18 of Windows 10 PowerToys includes a new app called Keyboard Manager. We show you how to access it and how to use it to remap your standard keyboard.

Over the years, I have written and re-written about a technique that allows you to remap the keys on a Windows 10 keyboard using a tool found in an old Windows Server Resource Kit. While that technique still works, with the latest release of Windows 10 PowerToys, there is now an even better way to remap the keys on a keyboard.
Version 0.18.0 of Windows 10 PowerToys includes a new app called Keyboard Manager. This utility allows you to remap keys and key combinations on your keyboard with just a few clicks of the mouse. This how-to tutorial shows you how to access Keyboard Manager and then use it to remap keys.

Using PowerToys Keyboard Manager to remap keys
Keyboard Manager is part of the latest set of Windows 10 PowerToys. Download and install the latest version of PowerToys and launch the application. Using the left-hand navigation bar ( Figure A ), select the Keyboard Manager tab and then flip the switch to the “on” position.

To remap a single key on your Windows 10 keyboard, click the Remap a key button. A new screen will pop up ( Figure B ), and then you’ll be asked to enter a keystroke that you would like to change, followed by the new key you would like it to represent.

As an example, if you are prone to inadvertently pressing the Caps Lock key, you can remap that key to something else and move Caps Lock to a safer spot on the keyboard. In Figure C , we are remapping the Caps Lock key to be Left-Shift and moving Caps Lock to be the right-hand Windows key. Click OK to complete the process.

Now, the Keyboard Manager shows what keys have been remapped ( Figure D ), so you can see at a glance what you have done in the past.

You can also remap common keyboard shortcut combinations using Keyboard Manager. In Figure E , we will remap Break (Alt-Scroll Lock) to be Paste Text Only (CTRL-Alt-V). Click OK to complete the process.

Your remapped keys and key combinations will remain in effect as long as the Keyboard Manager is turned on and Windows 10 PowerToys is running. As a practical matter, this caveat means you will likely want to set PowerToys to automatically run during the Windows 10 boot process.
SEE: How to use Windows 10 PowerToys Run to open applications, folders, and files (TechRepublic)
Using the left-hand navigation bar in Windows 10 PowerToys again, select the General and then flip the Run at Startup switch to the “on” position, as shown in Figure F .

Now, when you start or restart Windows 10, PowerToys will automatically start and run in the background, ensuring your keyboard remapping remains in place.
