Windows 'quote' and "double quote" key issue

Open Notepad and try the following steps to reproduce this,

if I type a double quotation mark ("), it does not appear on the screen until I type an additional key.  

If the next key I type is a vowel, it creates an umlaut over the vowel:  ä ë ï ö ü

If I type the quote a second time, I get two quotes.

If I type a single quotation mark ('), it does not appear on the screen until I type an additional key.  

If the next key I type is a vowel, it creates an accent over the vowel: á é í ó ú

If I type the quote a second time, I get two quotes.

I have no need for umlauts and accents.  However, the quotes are essential for me, and this interferes with my work flow. 

There must be a glitch in the software programming for the keyboard.


Try the following steps to fix this,

Ø  Open Control Panel

Ø  Go to the Options of Language

Ø  Remove "United States-International" Input method

Ø  Save the changes

Close and try again in Notepad.
