  1. is there a way to personalize the keyboard layout?


    I bought this computer in the US but i live in Spain. the problem is that the physical keyboard was made for using an english layout, so when i change it to spanish layout the physical keys often show different symbols or letters than what im actually typing on the screen. what i would want is to keep an english layout (so that it matches the physical keyboard), but change only some keys so that i can have, for example, this spanish letter: ñ.

    thanks

    :)

  3. Wrong keyboard layout in login page after update to 1607

    Hi,

    Since the issue reoccurred after updating to anniversary update, I suggest you to reconfigure the QWERTY keyboard layout and check if the same issue persists. This is to check if the issue is with Windows 10 1607 update.

    I suggest you to follow the steps below to configure the keyboard layout:

    • Open Settings and click on Time and Language.
    • Click on Region and Language.
    • Add the Country and click on add a language and select the language of your choice.
    • This will take time to download the pack.
    • Once this is done, Press Windows key + Space and press Space key to choose the keyboard layout.
    Hope it helps. Revert to us with the results, will be glad to assist you.

    Thank you.
