hi 

so im on windows 10 full update in french 

my language windows is french

my only one keyboard layout is us international

@AshutoshRox :

You are correct. Keyboard layout can be changed from the OS settings.
Help can be taken from the below web articles:

1. For Windows machines: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-change-your-keyboard-layout-windows-10

2. For Mac machines: https://thetypingcat.com/howto/change-your-keyboard-layout-mac-os-x

Hope this helps.

 

i know this but my issue is software side 

 

its like indesign / photoshop / illustrator even in english keep the azerty layout shortcut 

even if i switch my keyboard and set up in us

 

by exemple in indesign the shortcut for bring an object top or bottom the layer doesnt work 

 

my issue would be resolve if someone send me a defaut keyboard layout from us international installation 

like indesign/shortcut pref / save defaut us in a file

I have saved a copy of Keyboard Shortcut Settings file on https://adobe.ly/2X7O3vi

You can download it and move it to the below location in windows:
C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign\Version 15.0\en_US\InDesign Shortcut Sets

Once done, launch InDesign and From Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts, select the new "Qwerty" as default set.

Let us know if it helps.

I'd say (but it is a guess), that your keyboard is operative system-based. Being French, your native keyboard is AZERTY, but I think you can set, as a user, your keyboard layout as a QWERTY one, can't you?
