Keyboard layout for Your country

[klricks]

Help for a real newbie.
I got a Pi, configured it for a 7" LCD, everything was working well.
Decided I didn't like the time being UK time and I'm in US, so found instructions how to "americanize" the pi settings.
Did this and time successfully fixed, but along the way there was a keyboard reconfiguration section. I truly believe that I selected American US and standard Logitech keyboard... but now the Pi sees the keyboard strokes a characters I've never seen before and I'm totally stuck.
Thought I could edit profile on my PC running Win10, but it doesn't recognize the SD format. I'm at a loss as to what to do at this point? The SD card was a noobs card that came with the Pi that I installed Raspian from.

I would appreciate any guidance, and please recognize if you start talking Linux and Pi talk, I probably won't understand.
Thanks in advance,

(For Raspbian OS)

sudo raspi-config

- Choose Internationalization menu
- Choose keyboard setup menu.
- If your exact keyboard is not on the list then choose one of the generic 101, 102 or 104 keyboards.

The following steps are Important! If need US then you must choose US. Don't leave it set to UK.......

- The default Keyboard Layout is [ English (UK) ]
- You may need to scroll down and select [Other] to get back to the country of origin menu
- From country of origin menu select [English (US) ]
- Then from Keyboard layout: menu, scroll to top of list and select - [ English (US) ]. Do not choose anything else unless you know exactly what you are doing!

- Complete the other menus then reboot.

My problem now is that when I use keys on the keyboard, some odd/non English characters show up, so the solution can’t be to edit a file or do things from the pi command prompt. I have touchscreen input. Was hoping for some way to get back to the noobs menu with standard settings and start over?

If your Pi boots into the desktop try the "Raspberry Pi Configuration" Application (applications menu / Preferences / Raspberry Pi Configuration).

Maybe somebody will think this useful:

If you have a hungarian keyboard, but you want to use US keyboard layout, for me, these settings worked:

Generic 104-key PC
English (US) - English (international AltGr dead keys)
Right Alt (AltGr)
No compose key
