    Keyboard typing the wrong letters after Windows 10 reinitialisation


    I recently got laid off but was given my work computer. I had to reinitialise Windows 10. When it started again, I couldn't enter my personal login i fo because the keyboard is typing the wrong letters and characters. I tried the numlock..did not work. I tried using a usb keyboard, and it was still typing the wrong letters. Q is now A. M is comma , and the @ symbol is nowhere to be found. Can anyone help me? Thank you

    :)

    Keyboard is typing the wrong letters

    My Logitec K350 keyboard works fine when I plug it into my laptop. When I plug it into my desktop and search on Google, try to shop on Amazon, etc. it produces the wrong letter when I press on a few of them.

    s key types an i

    q key types a s

    e key types a m

    Same letters, same results. I am typing just fine on the Microsoft help page, but can't when I am on the internet. What is going on?
