Hello,

I have brand new Lenovo yoga 500 and some key function have been swapped e.g the " key prints @ and vice versa. That is not a big issue as I can memorize this. How the "sharp" key is printing backward slash "\" however the proper backward slash key is printing the proper function. I am stuck I really need this key for coding!!

this is often the result of a mismatch between the physical keyboard and the Windows keyboard setting. I suggest you go to the Control Panel - Keyboard icon and check the language setting.

Good Luck
