Hi Noel,

Did you change the language to English after or before the upgrade to Windows 10?

Characters of which language are not matching, Japanese or English?

Update the drivers for keyboard and check. Follow the steps :

• Press Windows + X
• Click Device Manager
• Expand Keyboard
• Right click and choose “Update drivers”

Hi Carol,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I would suggest you to remove English UK and just have the default English US under keyboard input language and check.

a. Type Settings in the search bar and click on the setting symbol on the top right.

b. Click on Time and Languages.

c. Click on Region and Languages.

d. Under the languages tab.

e. Click and Change the language to English US.

Step 2:Use on screen keyboard to type the characters (@, “)
