[h-e-w] Quotation marks and other special characters

[Carl Winbäck]

I’m not able to use ”alt codes” to insert special characters when using Emacs 25.1.1 on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit.

E.g. if I press Alt+0147 in order to insert an opening double quote (”), Emacs just displays C-u 147- in the mode line. This keyboard shortcut works fine in other applications such as Notepad.

Any ideas how to solve this?

Best regards,
