I installed Windows with American settings, so most apps pick it up fine, but some are acting up.
Is this an issue with the app settings themselves or something else?
I dug through the settings in those programs, but couldn't find anything regarding language or character correction related to this mess.
Not sure if they pull fonts from their own memory or just straight from Windows?
Specifically, it's happening with my English and German dictionaries, and also a photo filter app. When I try to type text using ABC characters while editing photos, it strips all the accents off.
Everything else works perfectly.
I tried reinstalling the apps, but the same thing keeps happening.
Anyone got a tip on how to fix this?
Thanks!

It’s not perfect, but it's pretty straightforward and everything is already built into Windows. (I'm running Windows 7)
1. Go here.
You can check the keyboard layout there; it matches what you have in Windows.
2. Go to (Start) Control Panel - Clock, Language and region and then click "Change keyboards or other input methods"
3. Click Keyboards and Languages and then "Change Keyboards"
4. Add " English"
5. Click on "Language bar" and make sure the Language bar is marked as "Docked in The task bar". Once you're done, you'll see a little icon in the bottom right (task bar)
6. While typing, you'll need to switch between English and the other setting every now and then.
Just hit Shift and left Alt at the same time to swap.
That's about it.
My issue is that I can't get rid of the capital I. Every time I type a lowercase i, it automatically turns into an I. Word is fine—I fixed it there—but my emails are still doing it.
Can anyone help me out?
