On my new surface pro with the surface pro keyboard. I noticed that the Right Control key has been replaced with the copilot key. I use the Right Control key heavily and losing the Right Ctrl key is disruptive for my workflow. There are some PowerToys Keyboard Manager based workarounds, but none of them seem to work for the surface pro keyboard. Also for my purpose, I never use windows copilot, so there is no need for the copilot key for me.

Can anyone please provide me with a guide to how to remap the copilot key to the Right Control key?

    On the newer Surface Pro keyboards (especially starting with the Surface Pro 9/10 Signature Keyboard), Microsoft replaced the Right Control key with the Copilot key.

    PowerToys Keyboard Manager does not support remapping the Copilot key.

    Have you tried AutoHotkey?
