Which key combinations do I have to use to enter the symbols that were replaced by the Copilot key on the keyboard of my Acer (Gaming) notebook?
With the introduction of Windows Copilot, Acer added a dedicated Copilot key to the keyboard of the Aspire, Swift, TravelMate and Gaming notebooks. As a result, some symbols on Bulgarian keyboards were shifted to other keys or simply removed in the case of a duplicate symbol somewhere else on the keyboard.
