Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/issues/1041

Describe the bug
When typing to the client computer, some characters dont appear:
some of them are:
é è à (simple key hit) - most important keys
ç (maj + 4)
¦ (altgr + 1)
¬ (altgr + 6)
¢ (atlgr + 8)

When using "^" followed by a "o" to make an "ô " - nothing appears but the key works (type twice and "^^" is returned

To Reproduce
Install the latest barrier version on 2 windows with CH keyboard layout

Expected behavior
Characters appears correctly :-)

Desktop (please complete the following information):

OS: Windows 10 pro 20H2 on both computers
Keyboard with CH layout (QWERTZ)
Barrier version 2.3.3

Hi @antipiot
This is an old problem and has a simple workaround: #630

hi @jduemes thanks for this information but my problem is not only related to alt+gr keys.
As far as i understand after a quick read, your suggested workaround is only about altgr keys wich is not my only problem as stated with "é è à (simple key hit) - most important keys"

Am i missing something and your suggestion correct my main problem?
