lib pywhatkit can't send slash(bar) '/' in whatsapp

Question:

I want to be able to send a link with pywhatkit on whatsapp, but when typing whenever it reaches the ‘/’ it stops typing in the text box and starts typing in the object to look for other contacts, does anyone know how to solve this?

Able to send link on whatsapp.

enter image description here

my code:

pywhatkit.sendwhatmsg_to_group_instantly('my_group_code', url)

#my_group_code is group invitation code
#url is the variable that contains the link

it goes up to the part of searching for contacts after the first slash ‘/’ is typed.

Answers:

I found out that it’s a whats app web shortcut that makes this happen when the library uses the same shortcut to type the slash ‘/’, I didn’t find a solution, but in a palliative way, I created a virtual machine with a layout all in English, inside it works perfectly.

Updating, on my machine now it worked, leave the windows keyboard layout with English United States US standard.
