    At random intervals, the keyboard layout will keep PERSISTENTLY changing to UK, prompting me to manually change it back to US.

    As you can see on the image above, there's an option to change to the UK keyboard, while I never made that choice I have already changed it back to US on the above picture, just showing that the UK version is there for illustrative purposes. Manually changing to US fixes it till the next restart.

    Going back to the original settings page:

    You can see I have only two languages selected. English US and Greek.

    Lastly, here are my location settings:

    There is literally NO REASON for it to change back to UK, as it's not even an option that is available to me since I never selected it in the first place.

    Microsoft, please fix this! It's really irritating to keep having to change back to US when " appears as @ multiple times in the day.

    I have tried sending an email to microsoft support but there is no possible way for me to do so, as it keeps referring me to an automated agent.

    If any microsoft staff sees this, please forward this to your bug supervisor, as it happens on both of my computers at random intervals, both windows 10 64bit, home edition. All latest updates fully installed.

    :)

    UK install but won't change K/B input from US layout


    I did a Win 10 upgrade on a Win 8.1 Pro PC using Windows update and find that although it's a UK region setting and installation the PC assumes it has a US keyboard layout. I checked everything. The Region is set as UK and the keyboard is set for both UK and US with UK as top of the list. If I try to delete the US keyboard, Windows puts it back. The EN language bar shows US. I donwloaded the UK language pack but it was ignored. Any ideas on how I can get back to a UK keyboard layout?
