Keyboard - Update changed keys

Question

I have Windows 10 and have just received a Microsoft update.  Now my keyboard has changed - in particular the pound sign now gives me # and the @ sign gives me  ".  There may be more.  I've looked in settings and languages and can't find a change keyboards option.  Where do I find it?

Answer 1

Hi P, there is a known bug in the 1803 version of Windows 10. Microsoft are aware of this issue and hopefully are working on a patch . . .

Right click your Start Button, choose Powershell (admin)

Run this command and hit Enter

$1 = New-WinUserLanguageList en-GB

Run this command and hit Enter

Set-WinUserLanguageList $1

Close Powershell and restart your PC

Answer 2

This happens because your keyboard layout is changed to US from UK.

You should do following -

Right click on Windows Start > Windows Powershell (Admin)

Set-WinUserLanguageList en-GB

This will make other languages disappear. (In case, you want to add again or other languages, you can add again from language settings)
