    Issue with a French layout keyboard

    I have a new employee that was issued an AZERTY layout keyboard as she's a French immigrant and not used to our QWERTY standard. I have her setup just fine in Windows to use the French Layout, but when she tried to log in this morning, she had to revert to QWERTY for entering in her password. Is there a way to tell Windows that at all times to use the AZERTY layout, instead of just when she's logged in only?

    Bonus tip: Do the same thing but set the keyboard to Russian layout.

    Watch them having to call support because they locked themselves out of their account.

    As funny as that would be, I am the support. Plus she's the administrative assistant to the Agency Director. I may have a government job with union protections, but I don't want that wrath coming down on me lol

    I just did this with 4 random users. It's my last day before vacation too. Let the mayhem begin!
