  • If I understand your remapping correct, you create a remapping loop:
Left Alt > Win
Win > Left Alt
  • Can you please explain in detail what you mean with Also tried Win key. Same.. I don't understand what you want to point out with this.

I tried to swap the left alt and the windows key.

For that, the setting is working as expected

I tried to hold the actual win key to activate the shortcut guide

Tried the same with the actual left alt

Does one of these shortcuts work after remapping:

Win+F
Left Alt+F

Physical key:

Win+F -> context menu
Left Alt+F -> Feedback Hub

This is because KBM doesn't do 'press and hold' scenarios currently. It is "you pressed it" right now. #3390 is tracking issue.
