    US display language + PL keyboard layout: cannot insert char Alt+A


    Hi there,
    I'm using combination as mentioned in the title. Recently I realized I cannot type "ą" char (right Alt + A). I guess it's some kind of shortcut, since it sometimes pastes my clipboard into text fields.

    Is there any way to deactivate that shortcut? I couldn't find any option to change shortcuts, playing with language settings doesn't work as well.

    Thanks for help!

    :)

    Windows 10 Keyboard layout all fixed to English qwerty

    I recently upgraded my computer to Windows 10, but there is an issue with switching keyboard layout.

    I use two keyboard layouts: English and Korean. I usually switch layout using right ALT, but somehow keyboard layout stays English after pressing right ALT. So, when I checked keyboard layout, the display says it is Korean, but when I see preview it is English
    qwerty keyboard.

    Is there any way to use the keyboard as I used to?

    Alt Char Codes

    I've installed a new copy of windows 10 and ALT + 251 no longer generates the square root symbol. Here is what I get:

    ALT + 251 = ¹

    ALT + 0251 = û

    ALT + 8730 = →

    Region = Canada

    Windows display language = United States

    How do I change this to get the square root symbol?

    Thanks in advance
