No. See remarks of GetKeyNameText in MSDN:

The format of the key-name string depends on the current keyboard layout. The keyboard driver maintains a list of names in the form of character strings for keys with names longer than a single character. The key name is translated according to the layout of the currently installed keyboard, thus the function may give different results for different input locales. The name of a character key is the character itself. The names of dead keys are spelled out in full.

Is there another way, because we have german keyboards, and won't change the Windows keyboard layout.

You have to change the Windows keyboard layout to "English" (Regions- und Sprachoptionen, Sprachen, Details).

Where will translate accelerators to text for menu item.
We wrote a app with eng. language, but use it on German / ... Windows.
So we see in the menu,  MenuItem....UMSCH
not MenuItem....SHIFT.
Where can i change that ?
