Sounds that you switched the keyboard layout from en-GB to another layout (en-US?).

Do you have multiple keyboard layouts installed?

It is possible you accidentally changed the keyboard layout by using a key sequence to rotate the keyboard layout.

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

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
