Key that’s been marked with red border. It’s a dead key by default.
Alt Gr + Key that’s been marked with red border
Alt Gr + Key that’s been marked with red border

There are no forwardtick keys available for the other keyboards, however an alt code exists (Hold left Alt and type the numbers on your num pad). The below codes should work on any keyboard.

So if you want an '
, you do the following: Hold left Alt, press
3, release 3 but still hold Alt, press
9, release 9, release Alt.
1-1 u put all this effort in getting the images,even a red border aroudn the key,but the relevant mark on the key is so tiny it's hard2see what it is and in some cases look like a dot or dirt on my screen!They r extremely unclear images with a highlighted border around a key creating the illusion of clarity cos normally a highlight around an area clearly shows the thing it is around.i'm not even sure that'forwardtick'is a proper name. And the pictures just show specks! That red speck on the belgium keyboard key has a black speck too.I can only just ascertain which direction red speck is going – barlop – 2014-09-30T21:16:21.530
And the french keyboard image with the 7 and the e, and a tiny tiny little speck, that is the worst of all the bad pics you have there. Even clicking the image doesn't help in ascertaining what that character -you have highlighted- is!! Makes me wonder why you even bothered to highlight it. You may as well have said hit the 7 key it has a tick going one way or the other, that you want. Reading your answer carefully I see the french one is a bad tick , from titled backtick at the top, but the image doesn't help at all in showing whether it's back or forward. – barlop – 2014-09-30T21:21:53.383
9@barlop it's about the location which should be the same on all keyboards of the same localisation. – BloodPhilia – 2014-10-01T22:05:24.213

what is 0180? What character is that? – Alexander Mills – 2019-05-24T02:12:58.083
for the lazy that do not want to read the linked wiki article: press space after you’ve typed the backtick to have it typed/shown – bugybunny – 2019-11-18T10:19:52.697

On a Hungarian keyboard the backtick character is available via AltGr+7
(RightAlt+7
).

On Brazilian ABNT2 keyboards, the back tick key is the key between "P" and "[/{" keys.
It is also know as grave accent. To use it, press shift + "`" and then "space".
Brazilian Portuguese
Nos teclados brasileiros ABNT2, o tal de "back tick" é o acento grave, entre a tecla "P" e "[/{". Para usar, aperte "Shift" + crase e depois barra de espaço.

While Num Lock is enabled hold Alt and type 0180
on the keypad then release the Alt key. This will result in a forwardtick/acute accent.

What you are looking for is an acute accent (

).@JakeGould Interestingly enough the post you mention actually doesn't have the proper "alt code" for acute accent. – Goblinlord – 2015-02-18T05:24:27.903
1On my Turkish QWERTY keyboard, when I press
Alt-Gr
+,
, it writes backtick`, – Burak Karakuş – 2016-03-31T07:50:25.5871What keyboard layout do you have? For US QWERTY, the backtick is they key to the left of the numeral "1". There is no "tick", but you may mean the single quote which on a US QWERTY keyboard is between the Enter key and the semicolon. – Paused until further notice. – 2011-03-06T23:10:40.363
I need to know this for the screen based Windows 8 keyboard, so I have asked this again specifically about that keyboard: http://superuser.com/q/663134/166855
