@ sign not working in finnish/nordic layout

Currently using keyboard in Finnish and nordic QWERTY layout. @ sign that used to work with altgr+2 or ctrl+alt+2 suddenly stopped working couple days ago. Whenever switching between any nordic layouts @ sign won't work but if I select language to english USA and/or USA QWERTY layout @ sign works perfectly well with shift+2. Other combinations with AltGR or CTRL+ALT work perfectly well in nordic and usa layouts. On-screen keyboard won't place @ sign aswell if I'm in nordic or finnish layout. Keyboard is Corsair and checked from iCue that layout is Nordic aswell and there I can see that altgr+2 is responsive so nothing seems to be broken. All the driver updates and Windows 11 pro updates are done. Only thing left is reinstalling whole windows.

Every other guide just tell to switch from layout to another but since I'm using ÄÖÅ letters I'd rather stay in finnish layout.

Hi,

Thanks for the advice!

Your suggestion for the number 3 was right one. Enemy behind my problem was newest update in Nvidia app and their 3 slots for game filters that you can store and activate with ctrl+alt+1,2,3 buttons. That suddenly had overwritten @ sign even that it previously worked with same settings enabled. After disabling filter hotkeys, everything works like they are supposed to :)

Anyone else with this problem, just replace hotkeys or just disable them in nvidia app settings: alt+z -> settings (gear icon) -> hotkeys -> change profile 1-3
