    Is your keyboard set to US/EN?

    Installing US-International Keyboard
    Open "Regional and Language Settings" in Control Panel...
    Select Languages Tab > "Details..." button.
    Make sure your default input language is English.
    Click "Add", then select "US-International" keyboard and "OK" your way back out.

    okay that just happened to me (again) and i found an answer. it's cuz you pressed ctrl + shift at the same time by accident. hold down the ctrl + shift again.. hold it for a while, like 10 seconds, and you should get ur ? back.

    nope doesnt seem to be workin :(
    the only i find that works is closing my browser or whatever other program im in that uses text and then reopening it and it works. it also messes with the apostrophe key and makes this symbol: è . Looks the same as the ? one, but this è has a different accent. THis is the apostrophe one: è and this is the ? one: é

    What you want to do is go to Clock, Language and Region on control panel than change keyboard or other input methods. Go to keyboard and languages and select change keyboard. go to advanced option and see which one changes the language. mine is left alt and shift!

    Here is how you fix this problem for good with Windows 7 -

    1. Go to the control panel.
    2. Click "Clock, Language and Region"
    3. Click "Region and Language"
    4. Click the "Change Keyboards" button
    5. On the "General" tab, in the "Installed Services" list, in the sub-menu under "Keyboard":
    -Click a multilingual option in the list
    -Click "Remove"
    6. Repeat 5 until only English items remain in the list underneath "Keyboard"
    7. Click "Ok"
    8. Be happy that you never have to deal with this again

    Hold Ctrl and press shift 7 times. If it doesn't work then try it again.

    its because you pressed Ctrl and Shift at the same time.. just hold down the left Ctrl and Shift for about 5 seconds and then you should be good.
