Key Board settings.

Question

Hi all.

Can anyone tell me how to change my keyboard setting to UK British setting?

Microsoft still believes that everyone lives in the US and so we all must have a US keyboard. I didn't ask or want a US keyboard setting but still its been changed, it doesn't work on a British keyboard MS 

Its abit like looking on the web to buy a item, MS keep showing me items to buy in the US, I don't live in the US, and I wont be buying for there.

It's not hard MS the old windows systems worked fine, maybe that's why so many are still using them

Answer 1

Go to bottom right of your task bar, to left of date and time. You should see ENG or American Eng, hover over it and it will tell you what language  you are on. To change it press windows key +space.

Answer 2

Hi Coldassassin, there is a known bug in the 1803 version of Windows 10.

Right click your Start Button, choose Powershell (admin)

Paste this command into Powershell and hit Enter

$1 = New-WinUserLanguageList en-GB

Paste this command into Powershell and hit Enter

Set-WinUserLanguageList $1

Close Powershell and restart your PC

That's It!

Answer 3

Try this fix by DaveM:

Please try this workaround to set your preferred input language:

Right click your Start Button, choose Powershell (admin)

If the @ symbol on your keyboard is above the 2, you have a US English Keyboard

Paste this command and hit Enter:

$1 = New-WinUserLanguageList en-US

If the " symbol on your keyboard is above the 2, you have a UK English Keyboard

Paste this command and hit Enter:

$1 = New-WinUserLanguageList en-GB

Paste this command and hit Enter:

Set-WinUserLanguageList $1

Close Powershell and restart your PC

I hope this helps.

Also make sure your PC’s language is set to UK English:
