Windows – Cannot type @£$ symbols in Windows 8.1

keyboardkeyboard-layoutsymbolswindows 8.1

I'm having this weird problem with my Windows 8.1 that I'm unable to type-in @ £ $ symbols with my Swedish keyboard.
I know the first probable answer would be to check my keyboard settings and correct it if necessary. However, I have checked/changed that setting 100 times but it didn't help.

To make this issue more interesting, I'm having the exact same settings on my other computer (with Swedish keyboard too) and there I'm able to type-in all those characters.

I'm using Microsoft Wireless Keyboard 800 (Model 1455). The problem still persists if I plugin some other wired keyboard with Swedish layout.

Is this a known bug in windows? and how to fix this?

For your perusal, I'm attaching the screenshot of my current settings.

Try and install a Danish or German keyboard (you can delete them later) and see if you can produce those characters.
