I'm therefore closing this as notabug. It seems to me then that the correct answer is that keyboards with swedish layout on Windows does not fit the new keyboard input code. I see the same on a laptop now with emacs 26.2. It is strange that no-one else in this country complains. Using the work-around with setting w32-use-fallback-wm-chars-method solves the problem. But the docstring of that variable suggests that I shouldn't have to use it unless debugging something. I am not going to argue with the closing but I don't think this is specific to one specific keyboard. It was reproduced on several keyboards on different machines. Thanks -- Tomas
