Hi there, I've a MacBook Air (2013), I've installed Windows 8.1 Pro using BootCamp latest version

Everything works fine except one problem

My Mac has an English + Arabic keyboard, in Windows, the English language works fine

But the Arabic key mapping doesn't match any of Windows 8.1 Arabic keyboard layouts

Can you please add an Arabic keyboard layout that match the Mac keyboard mapping for Arabic's letters

Thank you in advance, regards

By the way

I've tried all the Arabic keyboard layouts available in Windows 8.1

I've installed the Arabic language pack

I've tried some of the layouts available on the internet, sadly none works on Windows 8.1

I'm using the latest drivers available from Apple

Any help will be much appreciated
