During the Windows 11 installation, users are prompted to select a keyboard layout or input method. Typically, the US layout is chosen as the default keyboard layout, as most keyboards in Indonesia follow the US layout.
However, after the installation, is it possible to change the keyboard layout? This becomes necessary when purchasing a new keyboard that might have a different layout, such as the English UK layout, where the placement of @ and ” is reversed.
