Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/issues/510

Operating Systems

Windows 10 Version 1903
Arch Linux (don't dare ask me for a specific version Jesus Christ)

Barrier Version

2.3.2-snapshot-210c2b70

Steps to reproduce bug

Open the program and use it
I use this to communicate from my main windows pc to my arch linux development machine

Now i live in the UK with a UK keyboard layout (en_gb.UTF-8)
Witch i have set on my Linux Machine and my windows machine to this layout
independently they both work fine with keybinds like ( || ~~ ## )

But when i use these (Witch is vital for args in Linux) on my linux machine using my host windows machine its like the program works like a American Translator XD cuz it changes the layout between the systems

i Just assumed it would send the direct characters over the network or use the native layout but no

so yea this is very frustrating and broken
posting here for more info / if there is a simple resolve

fixed it on my host
C:\Program Files\Barrier
barrier.conf

Line 26 i think it was i changed from
countryName = US to UK

might have messed with a few more things but then i restarted and that corrected my issue
