What is the keyboard shortcut to type the character Ñ on my laptop?

Official sources claim that CTRL + SHIFT+~+N works, but it just opens up an incognito tab.

Searching through special characters or copying and pasting every time is tedious.

    Hi MakiHayakawa1, I am Paulo and I'd like to help.

    The Ctrl + Shift + ~ release then type n or Shift + n for the upper case would only work in Microsoft Word. If you intend to type it in the browser and your keyboard doesn't have a Numpad, then a workaround would be to press Windows + Ctrl + o to open the on-screen keyboard. Press Alt on your keyboard then click on 164 or 165 from the on-screen keyboard

    ñ = Alt (Physical key) + 164 (Click on OSK)

    Ñ = Alt (Physical key) + 165 (Click on OSK)

    Have you enabled Numlock in your OSK? Once that is enabled, you should click 164 or 165 in the Numpad area.

    • Numlock On in OSK
    • Alt (Physical key) + 164 (Click on OSK Numpad)
