I bought a USB foot switch that "works", but only as the button "enter". I tried to remap it the whole morning, but Windows is determined to only recognize it as enter, without distinction to the normal keyboard enter.

Notice that I tried most softwares that I found online, Footswitch, etc. Nothing recognizes it, or distinguishes from the enter button.

I want to turn the switch into a play/pause button.

  • Did the device come with any software that you installed? – harrymc Jun 09 '22 at 19:19
  • Is it a USB HID device? If so, maybe see [How can I remap the keys for a specific keyboard?](https://superuser.com/q/514024/) – jamesdlin Jun 09 '22 at 19:28
  • It came with a CD, but I don't have an optical drive. I'll check that link, thanks. – Eduardo Jun 09 '22 at 21:00
  • Try Clavier+ (or perhaps X-Mouse Button Control or AutoHotkey), which can differentiate similar keys on a keyboard, e.g., left-Alt vs. Right-Alt, on the chance it can differentiate the pedal from Enter. – DrMoishe Pippik Jun 09 '22 at 21:05
  • It is an HID device. HIDmacros seems to differentiate the keyboards, but I can't find the control for play/pause. – Eduardo Jun 09 '22 at 21:29

Most likely https://pcsensor.com/software or else have a look at the disk to see the name of the software.
