Developer’s Description

By SciActive
Use a Mac keyboard functions on Windows.

Overcomes problems with using Mac keyboards on Windows, like the keyboard on a MacBook. MacKB4Win allows a Mac owner, using Windows, to use normal PC keys, which are not included on a Mac keyboard. It also lets you use some of the same Mac shortcuts in Windows, such as Command + Q to close a program. If you want to run Windows on a Mac, this software is a must-have. There are many keys that are not included on a Mac keyboard, because they do not have a function in Mac OS X, however these keys are very useful when using Windows.

MacKB4Win gives you a way to use these special keys on a Mac without having to plug in a proprietary keyboard. MacKB4Win also gives you a way to right click and left click at the same time as well as right click drag. You don't have to use the cumbersome two finger hold + click method to right click anymore. Will pop up a message box every 15 minutes which will ask if you would like to continue using MacKB4Win. If you do not select Yes within 30 seconds of the message box appearing, MacKB4Win will close. This version is the first release on CNET Download.com.
