    Hashtag and at symbol suddenly not available in keyboard layout


    My issue is with the K345 wireless keyboard.

    When I press SHIFT+3 I get a £ sign, not a hashtag. And when I press SHIFT+2 I get a " sigh, not the at symbol. How do I resolve this?

    That's the UK settings. Go to Settings, Time and Language, language and Keyboard. Also check task bar if ENG is showing. You can change it there to your country.

    You might have to add a language.

    Hi there
    You don't have to add language -- you can use any language and keyboard combination -- you don't even need to add a physical keyboard -- the keyboard set in Windows merely alters the layout. You can switch keyboard layouts at any time and for any application.

    For example

    the UK layout is fine for when I'm writing / posting in English -- e.g posting to the Forum. Simply add another keyboard to your chosen language if you don't need another language.
