Additional letters are typed with the help of AltGr (= right Alt) and Shift:

• AltGr + Shift + letter = corresponding additional capital letter (for example, AltGr + Shift + "En" = "EN with hook")

These keyboard layouts replace the standard Russian keyboard for Windows NT/2000/XP. Before installing a new layout, you must have the standard Russian keyboard installed. You must also have administrative rights on your computer.

1. Download the zip-file, open it in a temporary folder, for example, c:\keyboard
2. Copy the file kbdnewcy.dll in c:\keyboard to the system folder c:\windows\system32 (for Windows 2000/XP) or c:\winnt\system32 (for Windows NT4). In case you cannot see the file kbdnewcy.dll, choose "Show all files" in "View" > "Options" > "View".
3. Run the file regnewcy in the folder c:\keyboard. Answer "yes" to the question about registering the information it contains.
4. Restart Windows

In order to return to the standard Russian keyboard, run unregnew in the folder c:\keyboard and restart Windows.
