jesus fuk, I had to google a lot just find someone mentioning RDP as the cause… THANKs!!

and no need to close the RDP, just click on it, open a notepad, and use alt -gr
than switch back to the main OS and alt-gr should be working again 🙂

In my case it was necessary to change the keyboard language layout and switch back.

Indeed, after shutting Windows XP mode, AltGr functionality was available again. – However, on the long run, it would e good to have a solution for running Windows XP mode and anyhow having AltGr at hands. Any ideas how to achieve this?

Returning back to the driver from 16.10.2012 will bring back AltGr.

Interestingly enough AltGr+E (€) wasn’t affected.

Yes, indeed – this worked for me too. Unbelievable annoying when you’re trying to write $, { and } all time time ^^
