Ever since i’ve gotten this game i got this weird isseu regarding my game crashing every time i type a / in chat.

An example would be /whisper (and at this space point my game freezes completely without giving me an error). I have no idea how this is possible and i’ve never experienced this problem anywhere else. Not just /whisper crashes the game, stuff like /dance /say /team or any other / related thing. Anyone has ideas?

Hi Chrisorie -

The issue you reported may be due to the use of more than one keyboard type in Windows. To resolve this, please try the following:

1. Click the “Start” button and select “Control Panel.”

2. Click “Clock, Language, and Region”

3. Click “Change keyboards or other input methods”

4. Click the “Keyboards and Languages” tab and select ’Change Keyboards."

5. Remove any non-use keyboards from the “General” tab and use only an “English (United States) keyboard service.”

Once done, try running Guild Wars 2 again.
