I am using the AHK workaround, so a second workaround is not needed.  I use RightAlt in conjunction with keys on the left side of the keyboard, because that combination improves typing speed.  I still recommend fixing the bug.

Good ideas.  I would say that the current approach represents a bug, because the user expects both ALT keys to work.  Fixing the bug would require either accommodating the expectation, or changing the instructional text to read something like, "Left ALT+#".

In the meantime, I have confirmed that the following works in AutoHotkey.

[Select]

#IfWinActive Find and Run Robot
!1::Send !1
!2::Send !2
!3::Send !3
!4::Send !4
!5::Send !5
!6::Send !6
!7::Send !7
!8::Send !8
!9::Send !9
#IfWinActive ; end FARR block

I haven't made myself clear.  The following screenshot shows that pressing ALT plus a number key should launch a program.



I would like this FARR feature to work with both ALT keys.

Since the keyboard interface provides only one action for the ALT key, both ALT keys should work to perform the designated action.

ALT + number key launches programs if the left ALT key is used but not when the right ALT key is used.  Please enable for both!
