Windows 10
Settings in start menu
Time & Language
Region and Language on the left
Make sure preferred language set as English UK
Under related settings, additional keyboard settings, make sure theres no other type of language set as alternate input, or different settings for different apps/programs.

Windows 7
Start menu
in search bar type "intl.cpl"
Click keyboard and language tab
Click "change keyboards" option button
Make sure english UK is ticked and selected, click "add" and find it in the list.
Click OK till everything closed down
Bottom right of desktop screen near all your icons for wifi and sound etc, click "EN" and select english UK

If you cant remove English US or it keeps resetting to that, its because an app/program on your PC is applying the US as your default to be used, kinda like apps having permissions to do stuff, they get to change language input at their preference. Something like Microsoft office has been known to do this and it requires changing the language settings in that program to want UK, then going back into the keyboard list, adding US manually, then removing it from the default input language list again yourself.
