So i guess no character based driver would be as omnipresent as your normal keyboard driver. Too bad.

All these options are nothing more than Workarounds and sadly no "real" solutions, i wont say this is your fault (because it obviously isnt), i was just asking whether itnis technically possible to just output characters instead of scancodes, which leads to all of this.

There are multiple options presented in the link I included on my previous post.

and I guess there isnt any simple way to just send the characters without the whole scancode problem?

Yep, YubiKey uses scan codes to send passwords, so using a different keyboard layout will alter the characters - https://www.yubico.com/2013/07/yubikey- ... d-layouts/

do you use some weird keyboard layout that handles numbers in a weird way? if yes it might be better so set it so it uses the numpad digits instead of the normal ones,

Using yubikey 4 / OATH-HOTP ??

2017-09-17T08:09:50+01:00

Hi,
I am trying to enable Ybikey for Keepass.
Using the procedure published by Yubico.
Everything things to be done correctly, but when I am testing on Notepad I do have strange characters instead of digits:

é--à&è('
éé"&&'(à
'-é-è(à(

Any ideas ?

Thx
