The record

Purpose: SharpKeys manages a Windows Registry key that remaps one keyboard key to another.
Type Key: The application includes a Type Key feature that automatically recognizes most keyboard keys.
Key mappings: SharpKeys can map an entire key to another key, map multiple keys to one key, and swap two keys.
Mapping capacity: The official 3.9.4 release supports up to 104 mappings.
Windows support: The project states that SharpKeys runs on Windows 11 and earlier Windows versions including Windows 2000 through Windows 10.
Distribution: SharpKeys is available as a GitHub release, Microsoft Store app, WinGet package, and Scoop package.
ARM installation: The MSI targets x64 and x86 Windows, while the ZIP package is recommended for ARM and ARM64 Windows PCs.
Runtime: The 3.9.4 download requires .NET Framework 4.0.
Registry activation: After writing mappings to the Registry, users must log out and back in or reboot for them to take effect.
Unsupported combinations: SharpKeys cannot remap combinations such as Ctrl+C to another key because it remaps whole keys only.
Unsupported hardware: Mouse clicks, most Fn keys, and hardware keys that never reach Windows cannot be remapped by SharpKeys.
Triple-byte scancodes: Triple-byte scancodes cannot be remapped through the Windows Registry technology used by SharpKeys.
Security warning: The project warns that disabling a key needed for sign-in can make a computer difficult to access and says users operate SharpKeys at their own risk.
License: The repository is licensed under the Microsoft Public License (MS-PL).
