Many people buy laptops in Europe, Japan, South Korea, or China, but once they bring them home, the character layout on the keyboard doesn’t match what they type. So today I’ll show you how to change the keyboard layout to match the keyboard you’re using

How to Change the Keyboard Language Layout

Step 1: Click the ENG text in the bottom-right corner of the screen and choose Language preferences. Or go to Start and type Region & language

Step 2: In Region & language , click Add a language to add a keyboard language

Step 3: Here, choose the keyboard language you want to switch to and click Next. I’m using a Japanese laptop and my keyboard is a Layout Japaese, so I’ll choose Japanese

Step 4: After choosing the language, switch to the Install language features tab and choose Install

Step 5: Once you’ve finished Step 4, wait for the keyboard language pack to finish downloading. You’ll then see the Japanese option below; click Options 

Step 6: In the Language Options section, click Change layout and choose Japanese keyboard (106/109 key), then click Restart now to restart the computer

Step 7: After the computer restarts, click the ENG icon in the bottom-right corner of the screen and click the Japanese entry, and you’re done. You’ve now changed the keyboard language layout on your laptop
