A little different, I’m using an Apple Pro keyboard on my Windows 10 PC and I’m trying figure out how to send/emulate the INSERT key that Windows will recognize. Where the INSERT key usually sits, is the Fn key. I’ve looked online and none of the suggestions seem to work at least in the application I’m.

I also read something about remapping keys in Windows but wonder if that would work with this Apple keyboard. I like it because it’s got two USB on it and it’s compact. Suggestions on emulating or remapping requested.

Plan B is to get a better PC keyboard. :) My cheap PC keyboard does not have a a usb connection to plug my mouse into, which brands have this besides Apple?
Thanks!

Update, I found a passive USB hub in a drawer in my office and for now am using this to connect both my cheap PF keyboard and my mouse to my PC. The issue is I have no spare USB ports on my PC. My Oculus Rift takes up all my spares. I would still like to know if emulating the INSERT key is possible with the Mac keyboard. And I ordered a better PC keyboard. :)
