Something as simple as accidentally pressing the Ctrl and Shift keys together can be all that's needed to switch keyboard settings.

The answer you're looking for might be amongst this lot but, without knowing which version of Windows Mrs V is using, it's hard to suggest specific instructions:

Apologies Chris you'd think I'd know by now :-(
It's windows 10
"She who must be obeyed" did almost the same thing yesterday. After 10 minutes she complained that the keys were all mixed up and that she couldn't enter@ in her email line. Turns out she has habit of resting her wrists on a soft touch keyboard and had pressed the windows key and the space bar at the same time. It was however my fault. :))
Try removing the US layout from the available options. (If Windows doesn't know that a US keyboard exists it shouldn't be able to switch to it):
