Description
Describe the bug
What I'm currently doing: I've connected a Logitech MX Mechanical keyboard and mouse to my iPad, along with a large display (USB-C Hub). Through this large display, I connect to a standard Windows PC, where I'd like to occasionally write a text. Unfortunately, this PC doesn't recognize my German keyboard and always uses the English keyboard layout, which makes it difficult to find certain keys. Is there a solution for this?

- If available, the
docker-compose.yamlfile - If package, we need the distribution and release: Ubuntu 24.04
How to Reproduce the bug

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the iPad-to-Windows connection and determine which RustDesk component handles keyboard layout mapping; done means German keyboard input is recognized correctly by the remote Windows PC.
