Switch Shortcut Modes on Logitech MX Keys

I was experiencing what I thought was a strange bug on my Logitech MX Keys, that whenever I used the keyboard, via my dock (which meant it was using the Logitech Unified Receiver) then the Alt key was the Windows key, and vice versa. Really jarring.

I found out that it’s simple to fix. You just have to switch to the Windows (or Linux) shortcuts.

Press fn and the letter for 3 seconds.

MacOS: fn + O
Windows, Linux, Chrome OS: fn + P

This switches it between the shortcut modes.

I'm a technology professional who's been passionate about computers since my Grandad introduced me to an Intel 386 back in the 90s when I was a kid. Those moments inspired a passion within for technology, and I've been playing around with anything with a circuit board ever since. Whenever I have a moment you can probably find me working on something computer-related, and this is where I like to write about those moments.
