How to overcome keyboard configuration in VMWare Player ?

Sorry for asking a stupid question but I have a problem that makes me crazy. I a开发者_Python百科m trying to install a program on my VMware Player, but while writing the password since it includes " # " character inside of the password I always get incorrect login error. I am using an english keyboard and when I try to write " # " , i always get a different character from it. Do you know how I can overcome this keyboard fault ?

Thanks a lot
