Many of the keys that you'd see on a PC have equivalent keys on an Apple keyboard:
Windows logo: press Command (⌘)
Backspace or Delete: press Delete
Enter or ⏎: press Return
Alt (left): press Option
Alt GR (right): press Option + Control
Applications: This key isn't available on Apple keyboards
Using the Windows On-Screen Keyboard for other functions
If your keyboard doesn't include these keys, you can recreate them using the On-Screen Keyboard as described in this Microsoft support article.
- Pause/Break
- Insert
- Forward Delete
- Home
- End
- Page Up

- Scroll Lock
Printing from the screen

Numeric keypad mappings
Use the standard numerical keys beneath the Function keys for numerical entry on the Apple Wireless Keyboard. Apple external keyboards with built-in numeric keypads provide the same function as Microsoft-compatible numeric keypads.
If your keyboard isn't working
Boot Camp installs Windows support software (drivers) that let you use features of Apple keyboards in Windows. If your keyboard works when your Mac is started in macOS but not Windows, try reinstalling Windows support software from Boot Camp Assistant.
