Can you attach a screenshot?

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.


It is possible that you have switched the keyboard layout by accident by using the key sequence to rotate the layout.

Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application and you may have changed the keyboard layout by accident via a keyboard shortcut.
