Request: Review of Framework Laptop 16 Keyboard Layouts

[MJ1]

@Azure

If I recall correctly, the EC does usually assign this key to open the multimedia player in Windows and Linux. The only time this differs is in pre-built laptops running Framework’s Windows image, where they have edited the OS to have that key open the Framework homepage when pressed.

Thanks. I searched & found Nrp mention it here

@FaultedBeing on a retail Windows 10 image (and actually in Linux too) it opens the default media player in the OS. On the pre-installed Windows 10 image on the pre-built systems we remap that to instead open your default browser to the Framework website. We’ll put up a knowledge base article on how to manually do that remapping, or you can also use PowerToys in Windows.

Also found that in windows you might need to use Microsoft power toys to remap it. Or alternatively via the registry.
