My keyboard is broken, is there a program to make keys perform the action of other keys on my keyboard?

Okay, so the ''W'' key on my keyboard is broken. I can't use it. Is there any way of making ''E'' write ''W'' when I am typing? Is there a program to do it? For example, when I press ''E'' on the keyboard, it will write ''W'' on the UI\screen? Thanks.

    in the start menu type

    osk

    open it, this will open the on screen keyboard.

    you can then click on the broken keys to type them.

    keyboards are extremely cheap! just buy a new one, if you have a laptop, you can use a USB keyboard if you don't want to replace the laptop keyboard.

    Yes or No, Yes to remap entire layout, it is built in but you'll still stuck with broken W mapped to be broken "something". No to temporary interception. But I can call up onscreen keyboard via Accessibility.

    search eBay for a replacement. It won't be that expensive and you can replace it yourself.
