Hey everyone! I keep running in to a problem that my L Alt key opens my windows start menu instead of my Windows key opening the start menu. Is there anyone familiar with the problem or has any takes on how to fix it? I'm looking forward to your replies.

Check your keyboard settings. It might help to see if the left and right alt keys are swapped on your laptop.

My keyboard uses the K86RGB model, and it supports programming via the Attack Shark driver. However, I’m having trouble setting up the key mappings and the factory reset didn’t resolve the issue.

If the issue isn't fixed using default settings, attempt the earlier mentioned Windows solutions next.

My prediction is likely based on a common shortcut. A fast search confirms Fn+A switches the device back to Windows mode.
