Before proceeding, make sure that there is no hardware issue. If the keyboard is broken in any way, then nothing can be done. If it is not, you can follow the steps written below.

Steps to be followed by the user having Windows 10

Step:1 Open Settings. You can use the Window + I shortcut or simply search for the settings app in the Start menu.

Step:2 Click on “Time & Language”.

Step:3 Select “Language” from the list of options given in the left pane.

Step:5 First of all, add your language to this list of preferred languages (if not already added) by clicking on the “Add a language” icon.
