Windows 10: Chinese IME in Windows 10

I have been using Microsoft Chinese IME traditional Chinese in Windows 10 for awhile, and the automatic "learning" feature doesn't work listing the characters I use most first. It did work in Windows 7. Is this a bug?

chinese ime problem

Hi,

Chinese IME (Input Method Editor) is a tool allows you to write Chinese on your computer without installing any software. This issue occurs if the there's something needs to be configured. To isolate your concern, answer the following questions
below:

• Were there any changes, recent updates, and newly installed applications on your device that may have affected your computer's performance?
• Which version and build of Windows device are you using? To verify your Windows, press
  Windows + R to open the Run window. Type WINVER
  and press Enter. A new window will open showing the version and build number of your Windows device.
• To avoid repetition, can you provide us with all the troubleshooting steps that you've done so far?
  

We look forward to your response.

 

IME Simplified Chinese

I had Windows 7 and I updated online to Windows 10. I write and use Mandarin Simplified Chinese. Before
Microsoft had an excellent Input Method Editor ( IME) for Chinese but most disappointingly the IME in Windows 10 is incomplete. So now there is no Radical Dictionary function where you can search for the Radical and then find all the characters
that use that Radical by the number of strokes. Secondly it had an IME pad where you could draw the character with the mouse and it would suggest possible matches for you.

So I ‘ve been waiting in the hope that a fix would come to at least upgrade the IME to what it had been but so far nothing. Please can you tell me if Microsoft intend to restore the IME and when it might happen?
