    Problem With the Grave Accent Key.


    My grave symbol key doesn't work until I press and hold it. Then it ends up spamming the grave key. I have no idea why the key doesn't simply act like a normal key. I have had this issue with grave symbol key for the last 3 updates on Windows10.

    I have tried the following: - Making sure there are no other languages besides US-English installed. - Making sure all language options keyboard shortcuts are turned off.

    Every time I want to type the grave symbol or tilde, I have to press-and-hold it, and if i'm lucky I will release it just in time to get only one character. Please somebody help me, it's driving me INSANE!

    Accent grave on French Canadian Keyboard

    Hello,

    I've recently started using the Canadian French Keyboard on my new Window 10 desktop. Unfortunately, I am having trouble finding the "u accent grave" on the keyboard. I could pretty much do every other accented alphabet but the "u accent grave".

    My keyboard have special keys for é, è, , ç, and everything else with "accent circonflex" or "le tréma" are manual.

    I also have a mac and the "u accent grave" is the tilde key next to 1 at the top left hand corner on that keyboard. On the PC, however it's the forward and back slash. I've exhausted every other option I could find on the internet so if anyone could kindly
    show me what to do that'll be awesome.

    Thank you.

    Which US keyboard has accent grave key working in Windows 10 ?

    I have been facing a problem for some days that in my English( India ) US International keyboard, the accent grave key is not working, so I can't access the console in COD4.

    While playing, I always need to switch to UK extended keyboard and after playing again back to US International keyboard.

    Please tell me which US keyboard layout has accent grave key working in Windows 10 ?

    Thanks,

    .

    Problem With the Grave Accent Key.

    Grave accent won't switch language while typing

    Hi I am on a newly bought PC using windows 10 home with Thai and English languages.

    With my previous other-PC experience, I could press the grave accent to switch language on the go while I am typing rapidly and it won't care whether I am typing or not, it would just change the language right away once I press the "grave accent."

    Now with this new PC while a button is being pressed, your grave accent command will be completely ignored. I have to stop touching a key before I can press it to switch language. This makes it extremely uncomfortable and confusing.

    I wonder if there is a tweak I can do to use the "grave accent" to switch language regardless what other key I am pressing.
