Unusual Keyboard Behavior

If the keyboard is set to "US international keyboard" or another international keyboard, some keys like the apostrophe key may type unexpected characters for users who normally use the "US keyboard".

1. Just change the keyboard to "US keyboard". You don't even have to log in to the Chromebook to do this because keyboard setting are one of the settings that appears in the Chromebook's bottom right menu.

Screen Zoom Issues

1. The screen resolution setting set to zoom
