Keyboard error occurred after failed attempt to install language pack

Snarkypuss · 22 Aug 2017

After attempting to download and install the English (United Kingdom) language pack I am getting a strange error with the English (United States) keyboard setting. It seems that the parenthesis key is giving me an @ and the @ key is giving me parenthesis. It's like the two keys switched. I did not get the full United Kingdom language pack installed because of an error during download and deleted it.

Any insight into this would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Hi,

The question is that if you have any extra keyboards installed say language for it, (side note: if you have EN-US as the default windows display language you can still add the EN-GB keyboard to it and remove the EN-US one.) So to see what you have currently:

1st Go to Settings

2nd Time and Language

3rd Region and Language

4th Click on the language you have as default and select options.

5th Check what keyboards you have installed from the list

6th if its the wrong language one just click on the plus and search for the correct one.

7th After it is completed downloading the language preference make sure to change the layout from the taskbar.

,

A restart might be required, but it might not be essential, report back with further information to this problem.

Edit: Also sometimes even though you have a configuration of a different language pack it may correct or add an extra pack referred to your current location. which you can see just above the region settings.
