Windows 10: how to download a US keyboard for windows 10, i don't have it as a standard option

my " and @ buttons are reversed on my keyboard and its driving me nuts. Forums say to switch to US keyboard. I have changed my region format to English (united states) and my windows display language to English (united states). When I go to advanced keyboard settings and click on the dropdown list for languages I have the following options:

English (united states) - united kingdom

English (united kingdom) - united kingdom

English (south Africa) - US

they seem jumbled up to me? why no English (united states) - united states option?

when I try to change between them my @ and " buttons are still jumbled. is this more than a language setting problem?

:)

 

Keyboard charachters don´t match

How to correct keyboard charachters if language region does match correct keyboard but charachters still don´t.

 

The Windows 10 Touch Keyboard is not using the Standard Keyboard Layout after upgrading to 1709 - How to fix this?

Reading everything, I found following solution:

- combination language NL and keyboard US (standard, not international) gives as result:

• keyboard options working: Standard keyboard, little, position, pencil
• text suggestion working

- combination language with different keyboard (US International, RU, etc.) gives as result:

• keyboard options working: little, position, pencil. Not working (grey): Standard keyboard
• text suggestions working

When you want use the combination: a different language + keyboard not US standard + standard keyboard, you need
copied the following directories using command prompt from windows:

• "C:\Windows.old\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\ink" to -> "C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\ink"
• "C:\Windows.old\‏‏Program Files (x86)‎\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Ink" to -> "C:\‏‏Program Files (x86)‎\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Ink"

Keyboard is changed by:

• settings touch keyboard>language>select language>options
• Control panel>Language

In general:

• touchscreen keyboard acts a little bit slower, but for me acceptable
• swiping does not work?
• Better solution? Setting is more easy, but the functionality is less. I hope that Microsoft will improve the touch keyboard in the future...
