I have a Windows 8.1 laptop, but suddenly my Alt Gr button doesn't want to work anymore...
So now I need to use Ctrl+Alt to perform actions.
I hate this because I'm a developer that writes a lot of characters like {
, }
, #
, @
, |
, etc... Now, I tried to make my own keyboard layout via Microsoft keyboard layout generator 4.1 I save my work, but when I verifier, it gives some warnings...
This is the log:

Now, it works (my Alt Gr) when I test it in that program, but when I install it, it doesn't...
Does anyone know how I can fix this? I really want to have this fixed, and I don't know how it could have happened that my button stopped working....
edit
When I try to do Alt Gr

@/2/é
