Windows 10: Alt + 21 Numpad Key Not Working.

I'm on a Windows 10, and whenever I try to type Alt + 21, nothing happens. It's supposed to come up with "§", but it doesn't.

:)

 

Codes ALT+NumPad

The part codes ALT+NumPad are not functioning on this PC. When I worked on the other PC all of them were functioning but now I can input just
ALT+NumPad codes from 32 to 255

 

No Alt codes working

I've found that no alt codes appear to be working using either left or right alt keys. I tried a few things suggested by an answer to a similar question ( ALT Codes Not Working
) which has made absolutely no difference.

Other than Alt codes the alt buttons both work normally, likewise with the numpad.
