The key for "<" ">" and "\" outputs as ctrl

[Stevdnha]

The key that should output "<" ">" and "\" is outputted as control all the other keys output the right character. My keyboard in windows is set to Belgisch (punt) (Belgian (dot)) and the key is indeed in the standard spot for right control but i really need the "<" ">" and "\" characters. I saw that the keyboard layout of the laptop is apparently Full-size island-style but i could not find a corresponding layout (what even is island style). Thanks in advance.
