Do you want to remap some key? 

AutoHotKey is free and pretty easy to use, except as below. 

Key Remapper for $24 is a little easier to use but especially easier
to use to get remapping of certain keys to only occur when certain
programs are running.  I still can't get AutoHotKey to do that, even
though I know it's supposed to do it. 

My  "multimedia keyboard" is still attached to a broken computer, but
using either of the above programs, I assigned  / and * of the
numerica keyboard to be volume down and volume up, and I assigned
pause/break to be mute.  These are the 3 multimedia keys I used 98% of
the time.   So now any keyboard is multimedia.  There are some other
keys I never use that for future needs. 

I would like to have pause/break function normally in cmd and tcc/le,
and I would like Insert to not function in Forte Agent 6, and if
anyone can explain how to do that in Autohotkey, I'd appreciate it.
