How to use the key under "esc" and to left of "1" ?

XPS 17 9710

XPS 17 9710

I have Dell XPS 17, Windows 10

What key combinations do I need for each of the 3 characters on the key under "esc" and to left of "1" ?

Extra question: What do the folk here call this key when they're talking about it ?

Thanks

Solved :-)

I worked it out for myself during a chat with a Support person.

They didn't know either. But during the chat I suggested key combinations, and then I tried them :-)

So, if I caused any damage, it would be in the chat transcript, and hopefully Dell would need to pay.

A few days ago, I tried various random key combinations. But some combinations caused non-recoverable effects. Restarts were needed to clear those effects.

Before today's chat, I did a Macrium backup - to be on the safe side !!

Anyway, here are the key combinations:

Caps lock OFF

¬   Shift+KEY 

`    Win+KEY

¦    Ctrl+Alt+KEY

Thanks
