Windows 10: keyboard layout has changed oddly?

Hi!My keyboard works now in a strange way - especially its left side:- instead of q I get qw,- instead of a I get ç but uppercase,- instead of s - as, x- zx, w-qw- instead of z I get delete,- instead of 1 I get current date and hour nice! but I don't want it now:ESC freezes my computer and Tab and left ALT closes it, OSK - works almost well, on logon screen it puts also correct characters. It doesn't accept numbers, instead of them I get letters from below row of keysThis strange behaviour is in both Polish and English layout, but Ukrainian and Italian keyboards also make such silly jokes

:)

 

Keyboard Layout

"Letters and numbers are all correct, but most of the other signs are misplaced"

This suggests to me that you are using the wrong "keyboard language" for your keyboard, and that therefore you first step would be to determine exactly what language keyboard you have. Possibly have a look at Windows Keyboard Layouts - Globalization | Microsoft Docs.

(The age of any laptop capable of running Windows 10 at all should not be a problem as regards keyboard layout)
