Do you have a question about the Swift Go 16 and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
I can not access the @ symbol when I press the shift key and no. 2 key
The inability to access the @ symbol when pressing Shift + 2 on your Acer Swift Go 16 could be due to the keyboard layout setting. If your keyboard is set to a different layout (e.g., UK instead of US), the @ symbol may be assigned to a different key. To fix this, check and change your keyboard layout in Windows settings:
1. Press Windows key + Space to cycle through installed keyboard layouts.
2. Go to Settings > Time & language > Language & region.
3. Under Preferred languages, select your primary language, then click Keyboard options.
4. Ensure the correct layout (e.g., US QWERTY) is selected.
If the issue persists, try using Alt + 64 on the numeric keypad or check for any software-related conflicts.
