Weird Macbook Pro M1 keyboard layout

Hi, I've bought a refurbished Macbook Pro recently and the keyboard layout is really weird. It's an AZERTY but the hashtag key is impossible to write. I've looked for every keyboard layout in the system preferences and I can't find any answer to what keyboard I should use. This has to be found somewhere but I can't find where.


Please help !


MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 14.2

What Keyboard input language do you currently have set in Settings ➜ Keyboard ➜ Input Sources [Edit]

The Azerty layout is available for French, Arabic and Kabyle languages.


If you have the layout set to French Azerty, the # tag should be located in the key that has it printed on it on your physical keyboard (above the return key) when holding down the shift+option keys.


If you have a different layout selected, then the location of the # symbol will be different.
