3.) Keyboard options in the Windows Start (Menu) practical with MS-Surface Pro and GO!

Especially when you are out and about on the MS Surface, whether PRO or GO , you want to have most options accessible via Windows Start, or if you want to start the keyboard options via the Windows Start menu or from the desktop taskbar, you don't need a lot of Windows expertise own. Via the keyboard options desktop shortcut you also have the option to make the keyboard options even more accessible. Just right-click on the desktop shortcut and pin it to Start and the taskbar.
 

4.) What should I watch out for when changing the keyboard settings!


If the keyboard is not typing the correct characters, the wrong input language may be selected. Modern operating systems have the ability to enter many languages ​​and if you have multiple languages ​​enabled it is very easy to accidentally switch between them. If you're using a laptop without a number pad, your NumLock key may be the culprit.

See: ►  Change Windows 10 keyboard settings (language, customize) !

Info:
Note that when switching between languages ​​in Windows, the settings are configured per application. You will need to change the input language depending on which program you are using. It's very easy to do with the language bar that pops up automatically when you add another language in Windows. ( ... see picture-4 )

Tip:
Always type on a slanted keyboard, it is much easier to type on a slanted keyboard than a flat keyboard. If you are using a desktop computer keyboard that is flat, turn the keyboard over and adjust the legs so that the keyboard is tilted slightly. If you're on a laptop, you can buy a stand to tilt the keyboard at a slight angle.
