Gramatically speaking, you should have put a question mark at the end of the first sentence

However, depends on what device you are talking about:
On a Windows PC with an Italian keyboard, it's to be found on the top row, to the right of the 'zero' key, shifted. OR you can press and hold the ALT key, type 0063 on the numeric pad then release the ALT key (this doesn't work with all applications though).
On a Mac, I've no idea.
On a smartphone, it varies a lot depending on the keyboard installed. On mine you hit the"?123" key at bottom left, then it's bottom row, right side.

Tell us what device you're using (and what application if relevant, it will get much easier to answer ????????????????????????????

I'd go with Serrano's answer (???? easy on a UK PC)! Use something like Notepad and hit each key un-shifted and then shifted. Look for "Latin keyboard" not Italian.... x

Occasionally on a UK keyboard that is being used as an italian keyboard Ive found it in place of the colon. bottom row shift the full stop. But that may have been peculiar to that keyboard.

Looks like I'm lucky then for once. My computer is an Asus laptop, with Italian keyboard as the main one, but the Windows installation actually lets me choose which language I want the keyboard to be. Google operating system does the same thing .
Typing this with Italian keyboard.

Out of curiosity is the "?" not shown on your laptop keyboard after the "0" (zero) second top row?

Quite a few laptops (especially, but not only, those with small-ish screens) have restricted keyboards. Since we don't know the exact model the OP has, it's difficult to be more precise ...

Default Re: Italian keyboard

I've found it to be mainly "Notebooks" whereby the alt ascii codes can't be used with a number-pad because they don't have one. The op does, so I guess it is a laptop and should therefore have a standard Italian keyboard. I was wondering if this is more of a Windows problem with the key-mapping?

Yes the symbol is there but it doesn't give a ?. Same with @ symbol and brackets. It's nuts!
However, Serrano solved the problem and that's a just perfect.

Default Re: Italian keyboard

It is likely a windows key-mapping issue, search something like "windows key mapping Italian keyboard" or have a look at Time & Language settings for "keyboard" if there are other issues. I'm assuming it was Windows Italian and there is just a little more than setting the country to English for Windows.

I've come across this problem a few times over the years, hence the interest. This link I found may be of help to others coming across the post.
