    remapping keys


    i have a laptop that has on the right side
    delete
    home
    pg up
    pg dn
    end
    right arrow
    i would like to try to re map them to
    delete
    home
    end
    pg up
    pg dn
    right arrow

    then i will re label them if it turns out i like there new locations

    also if it turns out i do not like this be able to return them back easy.

    i did find a few apps or programs or utilities that say they can do this but then talk of running in the background. so then i havean app using memory just to take cares of 4 keys. so is there a way to do this easy without having an app running and using memory?

    thanks

    Presumably there must be some reason for wanting to change as described
    Please enlighten us and explain the requirement to do want this.

    ok maybe i can. i do lots of research and now that i just got newer win11 ready pcs i found that having those keys in that place and order do not help when i wand to page down. i find myself hitting the darn end key all the time and stretching my fingers up to the page up key is a bit of a stretch.

    i use to have hp probooks that those keys were a bit easier to use. if that helps

    I used SharpKeys a few years ago to remap some keys.
