Question mark and keyboard is on alternate setting
My keyboard is switched to an alternate setting, but only for Firefox. My question mark is replaced by `É` and my quotation marks are different. On all other programs such as Microsoft Word, Notepad, Excel, even Internet Explorer, everything is normal. All the keys are normally white, i.e. the letters and numbers are in white, but É and the alternate system is in dark green. Please tell me how I can switch back, I really hate using Internet Explorer, and I don`t want to be forced to use it because I can` t type normally with Firefox.
Thanks,

Sounds that you have switched the keyboard layout by accident.
- Make sure that you have the Language bar visible on the Windows Taskbar.
- You can do that via the right-click context menu of the Taskbar: Toolbars > Language Bar.
- Check the keyboard language (keyboard layout) setting for the application that has focus via the icon on the Language bar.
- You need to do that while Firefox has focus because Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application.
- The default keys to rotate the layout is a combination (Ctrl+Shift or Alt+Shift) that can easily be used in Firefox to activate a menu item.
- To avoid an unintentional switch assign a specific key sequence (Alt/Ctrl+Shift+number) to select keyboard layouts and remove the key combination to rotate layouts (Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift)
- Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Keyboards and Languages > Change keyboards > Advanced key settings > Change key sequence
