    How to remove unnecessary keyboard layout?


    Hi, I tried to remove the UK English keyboard layout, which I don't need, using the Registry Editor because that's what I found on a website. However, instead of disappearing, it suddenly shows four keyboard layouts, which is strange because I’m only supposed to have three English UK, English US, and Korean. Is there any way I can fix this?Here are screenshots of my Registry Editor and keyboard layouts:

  3. How to Remove this Keyboard layout

    i tried the steps in that post. I will list everything that I tried here:

    Removing any other language pack, installing the language pack of the keyboard layout that I wanna remove and then remove it

    install the keyboard layout and try to remove it

    delete it in regedit

    these administrator settings.

    nothing seems to be working, might it be that my region is set to Germany?
