Answer
MSI Notebooks provide customized keyboard key position setup for particular keys such as the Windows and the function (Fn) key, the Backslash, and the right Alt key (optional*).
*The Backslash and right Alt key position swap switch is supported with certain Windows languages and regional users only.
This customizable design is for users who might want to avoid pressing the Windows key while gaming or some language layout differences in some countries.
Windows (WIN) & Function (FN) Key Swap
To modify the keyboard keys' location, open up MSI Center/MSI Center Pro software, and go to "General Settings" > Click on the key swap switch to make changes to the keyboard Windows and Function (Fn) key position by preference.
Backslash (/) & Alt Key Swap
Power on (or reboot) the system and press the Delete key when MSI logo shows up to enter the BIOS menu, select "Advanced" > set to Enabled or Disabled for the option "BACKSLASH/ALT Key Swap", and press F10 to save the changes and reboot the system to take effect.
