Hello,

I have a big problem with Illustrator... some keys on my keyboard are reversed (for example w and z, a and q). I have no idea how to fix this... and I use shortcuts that are causing me problems!!

Does anyone have any idea??

Thank you in advance
Configuration: Windows Vista Firefox 2.0.0.16

    Otherwise, the keyboard shortcut is Alt+Shift to switch to A+.

    I don't think it's a virus; your keyboard has "turned" English, meaning QWERTY instead of AZERTY. That's why your "a--->q" and "z--->w"... check the language bar near your system clock; if it says "fr," it's your software, and if it says "en," change it to fr.

      Hello,
      that's what I would have said if it was during the installation of Illustrator, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

    Hi everyone and thank you for your responses..

    It was really silly actually, the keyboard had switched to English and I hadn’t noticed.. It was my girlfriend who fixed it for me... so embarrassing for someone who gives her computer lessons!! :)

    So the problem is solved, thanks to everyone!!

    does anyone know a keyboard shortcut to do that?

    Hello,
    if you think your keyboard started acting up by itself without any mishap on your part, then you definitely have a virus
    see you

    it takes 1 to 2 hours to scan put them in the quarantine and delete them

    download and install this too: http://www.commentcamarche.net/telecharger/telecharger 168 ccleaner close applications during the scan, in the "cleaner and registry" icon check everything in all tabs do the scan and at the end start the cleaning in the registry find errors and then repair the errors at the question to write in the registry say no repair and in the end close
