Apple Magic Keyboard With Number Pad



I'm using Magic Keyboard 2 with numeric keypad. The problem I have is that when I use English US as input source, the dot on the numpad results in '. 'Where I'd need it to type a comma (as in, e.g., German language). I need comma, because I live in Europe, and the number separator for decimals is ',' and not a '.' I recently bought an Apple magic keyboard with numeric pad to use with my computer, after reading threads online that you can connect it via Bluetooth to a Windows PC. When I search to add a new Bluetooth device, my PC doesn't find the keyboard. I tested the keyboard with my MacBook Pro where I am able to use it fine.

I recently bought a new Magic keyboard with numeric pad but cannot get it to work properly on bootcamp.

I reinstalled the drivers, updated osx, pair and unpaired the keyboard, and called technical support, but none seemed to have helped.

The magic keyboard without a numeric pad works well but when I unpaired it, the tab on bootcamp control panel for keyboards disappeared, so I'm assuming the error has something to do with bootcamp not registering the device as an apple keyboard.

Any suggestions on how to get it to work? Do apple computers have microsoft office.
