Dear sirs, I bought a laptop in the USA with Windows 10 installed, and brought it back home in Brazil. I need accents, and had to change my keyboard to Brazilian ABNT 2. Now I have accents, but I could not get one symbol back, the question mark (?). Is there a way to assign it to a less used key? Thank you very much.

They're called "scan codes" here is the Microsoft specification (this is a document download) https://download.microsoft.com/download/1/6/1/161ba512-40e2-4cc9-843a-923143f3456c/scancode.doc

You can remap keys. Manually it's pretty technical but you can use Sharp Keys to take the guess work out
