  1. Windows now thinks that A and Ä are the same letter.


    Windows now thinks that A and Ä are the same letter. Or O and Ö. Well, they're not. A is the first letter and Ä is the second last in my language. O is the fifteenth letter and Ö is the last one.For some reason – without asking me – Windows now searches for A when I search for Ä – and vice versa.Also files sorted by title put files starting with A and Ä both under A. If a thing can be more wrong than this... Well, I can't think of one now. You get the picture.Is there anything I can do to get things back to normal?

  3. Typing umlauts in German on Windows 10 (ä, ö, ü + ß)

    Is there are a way to type stated above letters for German without typing alt + {four numbers that no one will remember}? Really annoying because I am using an 85% keyboard, and the alt + {four numbers} thing only works with a numpad, plus I'd rather use
    for instance alt + a to type ä instead of alt + 0228 and maybe alt + shift + a to type Ä instead of alt + 0196.

    Windows now thinks that A and Ä are the same letter.

    help. USB drive isn't assigned a drive letter.

    Any usb flash drive I plug into my computer isn't assigned a drive letter. The physical drive shows in the "safely remove hardware" but it doesnt show up in disk management. I have tried to populate the volume thru the safely remove hardware properties window and it does pop up in the list but it doesn't stay there. This isn't a format or assign a letter problem. It's more complicated then that. Maybe one of the services needed for usb drive management was disabled? Suggestions needed. btw external usb harddrives work fine.

    Windows thinks same size monitors are different?: So I just got a 1440p monitor to compliment the 4k monitor I got when I built my PC. They both are 27” but obviously are different resolutions. When I go to arrange my screens, the 1440p monitor shows as smaller than the 4k monitor, despite them being the same size. Any idea...
