I can type the "less than" symbol < but i cannot seem to type the greater than symbol. I have tried to the ALT-GR key plus the shift and than tapped L but it still will not do anything. How can I type the "greater than" symbol please? The "L" button has both the "greater than", "less than" and backwards slash symbols on it.

Take a look at the taskbar on the lower right to see the installed keyboard language.

 

if it is set to Swiss-German, holding down the Alt+GR  or Alt kay and tapping the L key to produce the  > or <  should work.

 

If it is not, click it and install and set it to Swiss-German. That should make the keyboard use make more sense.

 

There are always the Windows Alt keystrokes if that fails.

 

I lived in the Netherlands for quite some time and don't recall seeing a German-Swiss keyboard.

 

I used an International-US keyboard layout with my English keyboards to accommodate my typing in Nederlands.

I have the Swiss-German keyboard installed on the bottom right corner and I can only get < from FN+L and \ from FN+ALTGR. Is there any other way to get it? I have installed other forms of Swiss language pack things in the settings and it still will not function.
