If I evaluate (setq w32-recognize-altgr nil) then AltGr becomes equivalent to Control-Meta. In both cases Control has no effect when I use the AltGr key.I think this is expected behavior with your keyboard, where evidently a single AltGr key produces the same effect as Ctrl-Meta elsewhere. I will add something to the manual about this situation. Thanks.
I did not follow this thread very carefully. However after some tips a year ago or more on EmacsWiki I wrote the following tip in the documentation that comes with EmacsW32:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< AltGr+Control - Is That Possible?Emacs uses some keys that are a combination of AltGr+Control. Those keys might seem impossible to type on MS Windows since you might have heard that AltGr is the same as Alt+Control. The truth is that AltGr is the same as /Alt+Left Control/. You can still use the /AltGr+Right Control/.
/Important:/ You must type /AltGr/ before /Right Control/! Normally the order between shift, control etc does not matter, but here they do.
