computer keys not functioning correctly

how do i restore the keys to original designated use for example the @ sign is now on the top row where the 2 " key is

This has been asked, and answered, loads of times here on answerbank.

Basically Windows thinks you have a US (or non-english) keyboard.

Go into the control panel and select Regional and Langauge Options (or something similar).

Change any US settings to UK (this can be in 3 or 4 places).

If you have BOTH US and UK keyboard selected make sure the UK one is the default (or delete the US one).

Reboot to pick up the changes.
