'Euro' symbol missing on keyboard

Lawrence1895

I just got a new laptop, ACER 5551.

But where the heck is that 'Euro' symbol on the keyboard? It had a separate key on my old laptop (Acer 5313), and for days and nights I'm looking for it...without any joy.

Anyone out there who can help me before I kick this laptop out of the window?

Thanks

Alt Gr 4 (probably)

The Euros days are numbered anyway. Your keyboard is future-proofed!

I had it but got rid of it soon after.

Fu*k the Euro, Lisbon and all that other silly common market metric stuff.

It's right next to the 'any' key.

Just copy and paste this any time you need it.

You need to delete the "System 32" file from your machine before any of the ctrl alt 4 lark will work. Simples!

People really need to stop saying this.

I can picture a kid somewhere actually doing it.

The C:/Windows/system32 folder should not be touched if you don't know what you're doing. The folder holds hundreds of critical system files that Windows needs to run correctly. To give you an idea: My little brother once got an email (spam) saying that a file in System32 was a virus. He went and deleted it, and something stopped working (it was a few years ago). Long story short, it took me 5hrs to find the file again and get it back on.

Basically, if you don't know what the folder is, then DONT TOUCH IT!!! I cannot stress that enough.
