I didn’t give up on Apple keyboards because of the missing logo it was actually because the next generation of Apple keyboards went to the low-profile key design that is still in use today. This was the last keyboard Apple made that included the Apple logo alongside the cloverleaf image on the Command key. I’ll let you in on a little secret the last Apple-made keyboard I used routinely was the Apple Keyboard (A1048). You have a wide range of keyboards to choose from, including most of the keyboards made for use with Windows.

In Windows, make sure to also set the keyboard layout to English US.It may not be the best kept secret, but you don’t have to use Apple-branded keyboards with your Mac.In X11's preferences, check "Use system keyboard layout".Change you keyboard layout on your Mac to English US (use System Preferences).If PowerShell is not available, instead search for "cmd.exe" and in the cmd prompt, type: explorer shell::: characters in cmd.exe. In the PowerShell shell that opens, type the following: Powershell -noprofile -nologo -noninteractive -command "(new-object -ComObject shell.application).WindowsSecurity()" In the search results, click "powershell.exe".This worked for me in a slightly different and more complicated setup (connecting from a Mac to a Linux server through SSH and then from the Linux server to a Windows Server 2016 server through Remote desktop protocol using the rdesktop Linux RDP command line client).
