+**Description**
+   Sending scancodes enhances compatibility with games and apps but may result in incorrect keyboard input
+   from certain clients that aren't using a US English keyboard layout.
+
+   Enable if keyboard input is not working at all in certain applications.
+
+   Disable if keys on the client are generating the wrong input on the host.
+
+   .. Caution:: Applies to Windows only.
