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 |

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, |

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/ |

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

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

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. |

No, if we went away from scan codes then we are no longer able to use the keyboard drivers, so another driver would have to be used. |
