Description of the new feature / enhancement

if we can independently activate and deactivate this section (ex. with a shortcut key) or specify the desired keyboard, can be very useful.

Scenario when this would be used?

This feature can be very useful for laptop users, for example i remapped my laptop Fn keys but when i connect an external keyboard, the remapped keys dont work for me and i must change them again and this is annoying.

We cannot remap the Fn key. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/keyboard-manager

I know, I mean it would be very useful if the user could enable or disable the key remap section separately from the remap shortcut section of Keyboard Manager.

Just to add to this thread, my suggestion (#27894) was also to consider adding profiles to a set a of remapping keys. e.g. "a specific game", "a productivity program", Live Streaming, etc.
Thanks!
