My Portuguese compatible keyboard

This week's Silly Question Friday is not so silly.

Does anyone know how I can keep my computer from going back to its default keyboard configuration? There seems to be no rhyme or reason to when something decides that my question mark turns into something entirely different.

It's not a great problem like world hunger, but it is one I hope I can fix for good ... with a little help.

Many thanks in advance.

I think I've solved the problem, but indirectly. Your suggestion led me to the settings for my computer and I removed the English keyboard as an option for me. I think now that my computer will recognize only a Portuguese keyboard.

Thank you!
