Android Studio Mac keymap doesn't work on Windows

I use Mac at home and use Windows at work. On my Windows machine, I have tried changing my Android Studio keymap in Settings to Mac OS X 10.5+ but the Windows key is not detected as Meta. Also, when I use Mac keyboard, the command key is detected as Windows key. What key should I use as Meta key on Windows? How can I config Android Stuido or Intellij such that I can use Mac keymap on Windows?

Thanks!

Have a look at this post: How to make Windows key the IntelliJ IDEA Command/Meta key under Windows?

You can remap the windows key in IntelliJ/Android Studio by going to Help->Edit Custom properties and adding this following to the file:

keymap.windows.as.meta=true

Then restart and you should be good to go.
