Windows 10: Letter j is not working on my laptop is writing punctuation marks instead

My laptop is not typing out the letter j; instead, it is typing punctuation marks at the point where I am typing j. Can you help me, please?

Punctuation marks problem

On the keyboard, I can't type punctuation marks. When I try to write, for example, a long "i" it writes two dashes and then the letter. Here is an example: ´´i. I tried reinstalling the language in windows and reconnected the keyboard multiple times. Also, earlier, when I powered on the computer, punctuation matks were working, but after few second it stopped working. Did someone encountered this? I would really appreciate some tips or direct help from support.

Text Prediction and punctuation marks [N97]

Thanks guys for your posts!

If you imagine that the same word is automatically saved to the custom dictionary but with various punctuation marks at the end - you have the answer.

You can notice that always the last used punctuation mark is used.

And sometimes when you insert a word and a punctuation mark and you use * you will see that a totally different word with the same punctuation may appear (if the word has the same combination of keys).

I suppose and I think I'm right that N95 treats "word + punctuation" as a completely new word and moreover the phone saves it automatically and secretly to the custom dictionary even if we don't want them to be saved.

Sure, but it has nothing in common with the beta version of Custom Dict.

In my case the Dict works as expected.

It just helped me to discover what is on the list of my custom words and I was really shocked to see over 2000 words (each word repeated several times with different punctuations at the end).

You can make tests to notice what happens every time when you are writing a message.

Insert a word, add a punctuation and use * several times.

Then use the Custom Dict app to edit the list of custom words.

Thanks for the info.

As I can see you are now using the N900.

Does it work better in N900?
