I'm using Visual Studio 2008 and my keyboard settings for one of my solutions is set up so that its French.
This is particularly annoying when I'm trying comment and I get a "č" instead of a ' or when I'm trying to use the < key and get a , instead.
I have no idea how this setting was changed and don't know how to change it back.
The weird thing is it's only happening in 1 project and none of the others seem to be affected by this strangeness.
I've checked my Windows Language settings and everything's set to English-US.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks

One project or one solution?
I thought maybe inside the project or solution files there would be a language setting, but I did not see any in mine.
In your assemblyinfo.cs file, is this attribute set to something?
[assembly: AssemblyCulture("")]

I tried that...didn't change anything.
Do you have the language bar enabled on the desktop or anything funky like that?

I found it!
Finally!
To fix the problem I did the following: - Tools menu -> Options
- Check "Show all Settings"
- Environment -> International Settings
- Click on the drop down box (there was only one language listed here for me: "English")
- Restart Visual Studio
I still don't know what happened to change this but I'm glad I'm able to add comments again :)

Hmm, I don't have a "show all settings", they were all already there.
Good to know where that is the next time I want to prank another developer :-D

Its at the bottom of the Options window.
All I got is ok/cancel buttons?

What version of VS are you using?
I checked both VS 2008 and VS 2005, their options dialogs looked the same
I have a "Show All Settings" Check Box in Visual C# Express 2008.

Hmm I see the Ok and Cancel buttons on the right side of the Options dialog, and on the left side I see a check box labled "Show All Settings".
Strange.
Do you have the standard or professional addition? I use the professional one, and when you first run and it asked "how do you want the environment to look" i chose no specific profile
I just figured out why my keyboard kept getting switched to French.
I am Canadian and in Canada we have 2 official languages (French and English).
My Windows regional settings are configured for Canada. This means that Windows makes 2 keyboards available by default: an English (US) Keyboard, and a French Keyboard.
For Windows, by default, the "switch keyboards" shortcut key stroke is: Shift + Alt.
Guess what the shortcut key for undo is in Visual Studio 2008?
Shift + Alt + backspace
What the #@%$ where they thinking when the changed the undo shortcut keystroke from CTRL + Z to Shift + Alt+Backspace.
Gurr!
I removed the French keyboard from my keyboards...hopefully I Never see this error ever again.
I could have changed the keystroke sequence for switching keyboards to something else but I wanted to make sure I never have a French keyboard to accidentally switch to on any dev machine.
*Annoyed*
-Frinny
I had no recollection of this conversation.
I am a fan of sticking to ctrl+z and ctrl+y for undo/redo myself.
Yeah, what's really weird about this is now that I have removed the French keyboard I get to use CTRL+Z again.
