Windows 7 continues to change my keyboard for a layout in French

As I use Word, Outlook etc my keyboard suddenly will go to a French layout, so, for example, I can not type "?", instead, I have to insert the symbol.  I found a Fix - it for Vista, but I'm afraid to run it.

I have Windows 7 64-bit, my computer is a brand new Dell Studio XPS 9100 and the keyboard is the standard provided by Dell

Thank you!

Mark

You do not have your settings regional French value you? You can check this in the Control Panel, clock, language and region, region and language, then the administration tab and check that there no French listed anywhere.

I often use the Japanese locale for some games, and that brings up a toolbar at the top for a Japanese keyboard, whenever I change.

Hope that helps!

  • Windows updates continue to fail. : update for windows vista (KB2378111) security error code: 800719E4

    In particular windows security updates for example updating security for windows vista (KB2378111) error code: 800719E4. With a lot more updates, they continue to fail, but only a couple succeed. When starting my computer in general goes to screen installation of updates. He finished going through step 1 and 2, but never seems to complete step 3 and remains on full where for at least 5 minutes. Then shows that updates were not properly before. Restoration of the changes. This continues to happen frequently now, and after having tried to restart my computer or install a little at a time still does not solve the problem. Also, I tried to use the troubleshooting solutions but did not have much. Don't know what else to do?

  • Can I change the server port, but Windows Mail continues to change at 25

    I can get my outgoing mail working by changing the port from 25 to 587, but whenever I close the Windows Mail application and re-open it, it comes back to port 25 (and will not work). Thanks for the help!

    You should always back up when you use a Microsoft product.  Your hard drive may die too.  But deleting the e-mail account does not delete messages, and repair the database will not ruin it.  I have not had one person complaining about this program (WMUtil) except for one person who said their antivirus software falsely reported that the file is infected (it was not).

  • Windows 7 continues to change my time!

    And which is screwed to the top of my watch and record TV.  It is very annoying.

    I saw the problem with Vista (even if the laptop with Vista my husband never does) and the only answer is about changing the boot time and have to do with the BIOS.

    Well, my Dell with Windows 7 will change time even when it is turned on and I checked the BIOS.  The BIOS is the right time.  When I noticed this tonight (there not save survivor), Win7 says it's 03:00.  It was at 21:15.  I shut down the computer and check the BIOS: 21:15.

    I even put this update automatically every 4 hours. How did get to 03:00?

    There will be a fix for this problem in Win7?  I tried to disable automatic synchronization, changing servers.  And for awhile, it remained solid but then again changed!

    Windows 7 there maybe a bad UTC offset setting?  It is perhaps timing hurt because of this.  Check your zone time and (less obvious) your regional settings in Control Panel.

  • Windows 10 continues to change user account controls

    Why windows done 10. change user account controls, it's extremely annoying. Whenever I reboot it disables it, which blocks all applications. Why he won't stay where I leave it?

    While I can only say that malware has installed a utility that removes the UAC setting when Windows loading [in the hope that you don't notice the change, and that malicious software can therefore go further by installing other malware without bringing a challenge Admin dialog box].  This problem was reported some time ago and finally diagnosed as a symptom of malware - see Windows 7 UAC (user access control) is disabled on every reboot

    In addition to a full scan with your antivirus installed utility, download and run a scan with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware free [MBAM].  It is much more difficult for malware to hide its presence of two scanners different antimalware.  MBAM can exist alongside other anti-malware utilities, so it won't be a problem.

    Of course, it could be an anomaly in the system instead, but it's not that I've seen reported in this forum before.  Windows has no integrated procedure that changes the setting of the UAC, so it is difficult to envisage any procedure through to cause this symptom.

    Please specify the operating system you are using and use blue change control under your question of re - categorize it as a matter of Windows if necessary 10.

    Good luck

  • Windows 8 continues to change the time on my clock

    I love my clock is five minutes fast so that I don't run late for anything, but every time I put the fast clock of five minutes, the computer must be able to deliver to the when I re boot. I DON'T want the computer to update the time automatically, but I can't find the settings to change anywhere!

    You really need to update the time.  If you have not things break as networking and it may even think that your copy of victory 8 is not authentic.

    You can stop it updating the time under date & time > time Internet > change settings > uncheck synchronize with internet time.

  • Windows 7 continues to change time on 35 of 70 Windows 7 machines.

    35 on 70 of the W7 x 64 pro recorders NVR I maintain keep affecting their time 1 hour before. I have both set cela to synchronize the internet time with optical and put it manually. They were all initially the value sync takes time and they all went at the wrong time sometime Wednesday night. I put one time manual night last and this morning he always put 1 hour before.

    They are all set to the correct time zone. I rarely redefine the time normally usually 1 or 2 per month.
