    Annoying issue - other keyboard language is appearing


    I used EN - Philippines for awhile and had no issue. I have disabled Windows updates using Sledgehammer. And didn't install any language packs manually! Yet it happened twice already. English - Us appears on taskbar bottom right. It wasn't showing previously. I read tutorial on these forums: how to remove keyboard language, but nothing else than Philippines was for me in that category!

    Last time I solved it by uninstalling philippiness, installing english - us. Then installing phippines back and switching to it, then uninstalling English - us. But this is not a feasible solution... Even keyboard switching hotkeys are both unassigned and last time I checked: I had only 1 keyboard language - English (Philippines)!!!

    I don't want to only hide keyboard language on taskbar, I want to delete English US!!! Strange is if I click Language and then keyboard in Windows Setting, there is only English (Philippines appearing) and nothing else. Yet I have 2 on taskbar and can switch to other language!

    :)

    The extra keyboard layout keep adding to my language bar (with Pics)

    Hi Panupong,

    The updated Windows 10 may have detected your language, the reason why it automatically gave you the other Thai US keyboard. To correct this issue, we suggest that you follow these steps:

    • Click on the Start Menu, type in region and language settings and select it.
    • Under Languages, select Thai Kedmanee keyboard and click Remove.
    • Lastly, add it back by clicking Add a language.

    After these steps, your keyboard layout will permanently stay with Thai Kedmanee keyboard.

    Let us know if the steps above resolved your issue.
