Description
Hi, thank you for the great program, but I am not able to change the keyboard layout from english to german (precompiled Version 0.1.3 x64 Windows 11) . The whole Ubuntu-setting-options are configured for a German environment, but if you use the keyboard it is interpreted in EN/US-Format. i have tried
sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
and all other possibilities in the settings of Ubuntu 26.04.
also
sudo nano /etc/default/keyboard
KBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="de"
XKBVARIANT=""
XKBOPTIONS=""
BACKSPACE="guess"
doesn´t change anything. Do you have an idea?
Is it possible to influence this during the creation of the VM?
Kindly regards, Markus

Research direction
Start by reproducing the keyboard-layout problem with precompiled version 0.1.3 x64 on Windows 11, using an Ubuntu VM configured with the German settings shown in the report. Trace how keyboard input is handled and determine what must change so German keys are interpreted correctly; done means the VM consistently uses the German layout.
