There are too many variations of keyb layouts, maybe your KB is configured to another English language?

Has it always been like that? Or did it suddenly happen?

You should try reinstalling the driver for your keyboard.

Can you type the < key ?

Try changing the key layout to en-GB, see if that causes the key to work again. > and . will be mapped to the same key in en-GB as in en-US.
