That key sequence is a frustrating one. Today I can type the SEQUENCE

   Alt AltGr RCtrl +

and that works for me (or LWin/RWin AltGr RCtrl + with the patched 
version of Emacs+EmacsW32).

I use StickyKeys so I type them one by one. The important thing is using 
the Right Control (RCtrl) and the order of AltGr RCtrl.

Just two months ago the order was the reverse, ie RCtrl AltGr. I do not 
know what is going on. See also
