Mac Keyboard shortcuts

Hey, I am using outlook for windows and using the Mac shortcuts e.g. Command+U to underline a text but it will open the windows settings once I press it. I changed the various profiles in Settings -> Keyboards & Mouse but nothing works.

I am a former parallel user so maybe I am doing something wrong?

Which profile are you using? It looks like the Windows 10 profile would be appropriate as that should map various Command-Key combos to Ctrl-Key combos within the guest, however, it doesn't look like Command-U / Ctrl-U is one of them so presumably you would need to go into edit the profile and add the mapping? Try that and see if it then works.

OK, so try adding the mapping for CMD-U -> Ctrl-U and report back if it solves the problem. That mapping doesn't appear to be there by default.

Hey, so I have to add all of them manually? Is there no easier way to get all of them in? I mean there are many other Commend+ shortcuts.
