    Start control panel go to keyboard and change language settings simple as that and when installing windows there are options to set this up as you install it but i always forget to do that too.

    Default Re: keyboard

    Just in case you didn't work it out yet, Control Panel > Regional and Language Settings > click the Languages tab > Details... > then add the uk keyboard and set it to default, you can also delete the us keyboard, it will pop up with a message about not being able to remove it till next login, then logout and back in again and you're sorted.

    I'm new here btw, hello everyone.
