Bot typing \ as | when saving files

I have built a bot which saves files from a database. This issue occurs sometimes but during the while saving a file, the bot will sometimes type | instead of \ when writing in the filepath. it seems like the bot is adding in a [SHIFT] key for some reason. how would i solve it

Hi,

I suppose perhaps you should set your data in clipboard using SetToClipboard activity then Send ctrl+v using SendHotkey or TypeInto activity.

Regards,

I believe what is happening is that the keyboard on the azure machine i am using is misfiring the shift key, so \ becomes | and lower case letters become capital letters. This is an unattended bot with high volume
Has anybody encountered this issue? how did you solve it?
