Your tries couldn't work, because "ALT GR" is in most cases a shortcut for "ALT + CTRL".
But what I do not understand is: why don't you use "ALT GR + Q" to insert the @?


Because when I press AltGr+Q, the result is a "\" (backslash). I have a Hungarian keyboard.

I appreciate any help.

And in fact you did help. Deleting the shortcut for Paste Special altogether, the AltGr-V combination now inserts the @ sign as intended. And I can still use Paste Special via the menu, with which I can live.

EDIT: I assigned the Ctrl-Alt-Ins key combination to Paste special ...

Thanks for the hint. I did as suggested and saw only one assigned shortcut key, it was ALT-CTRL-V.
Then I tried to create a new shortcut via pressing ALTGr-V and the shortcut which appeared in the new shortcut box was again ALT-CTRL-V.
Then I deleted the existing shortcut and created a new one ...

I can't type the '@' character because instead of inserting that character a window pops up saying 'special insertion' (or something like that, I use it in Hungarian so I don't know how the term is in English). That is, the behaviour is the same as with the ctrl-alt-v combination.
How do I fix this ...
