characters change and cannot access # or others till reboot.

randomly on days. My keyboard characters will change. By this I mean that the # sign will become a e with the french accent. Or my > will become a period.

I have no clue why. Iit is random when this happens.
Then I have to reboot to fix it.

I believe your keyboard layout is changed. Please change back to English (united states) Layout which is the stand QWERTY keyboard.

 1.  Open Regional and Language Options by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking Clock, Language, and Region, and then clicking Regional and Language Options.
 
2.  Click the Keyboards and Languages tab, and then click Change keyboards.

yep all good still.  Seems that maybe when having 2-3 keyboard layouts in there...  it would get switched from time to time. Not sure what buttons I pressed to do it. Guessing something to do with CTRL or FUNCTION and another button as I use CTRL alot.

So yes.. to answer. All good still.
If it happens again.. i will reopen this post.
Get rid of the shortcut key
