Every time I enter Dosbox the program does not recognize my keyboard configuration. I have a Dvorak setup that creates it with the "Microsoft Keyboar Layout creator" program
Dosbox is the only program that doesn't recognize my settings. When I write in the program it does it with the QWERTY configuration

This may be an issue with the SDL1 keyboard support being very limited. Basically it only properly supports a standard US keyboard layout. Try to set usescancode=true in your config file.

Alternatively, try one of the DOSBox forks that supports SDL2 like DOSBox-X or -staging.
