    Disable text auto-replace in flowed on-screen keyboard?!


    On Windows 11, the mini-OSK changes certain words to symbols when they are "flowed" rather than tapped.E.g., "death" which I had to tap out here one letter at a time is automatically rendered as when flowed. To be very clear, this is just one of many examples. ****?How do I disable this behavior? And to be clear, this is global behavior; it is endemic to the flowed mini-OSK. Disabling auto-correct in Word or Outlook will not fix this behavior, and it certainly won't fix it in other apps like Notepad. I need a global fix.And what was the Dev team smoking when they decided this woul

    Touch keyboard lacks autocorrect, Word Flow, etc. in certain apps and text fields

    The touch keyboard in Windows 10 has some pretty great features such as autocorrect and Word Flow, but as far as I can tell, the only place where both of these features work is Discord on Edge.

    In Sticky Notes, Word, and most other websites in Edge, Word Flow works, and the keyboard shows word suggestions on the top, but there's no autocorrect. In Chrome and Sublime Text, there's no word suggestions, autocorrect, or Word Flow. Here's what I'm experiencing with Word Flow:

    The answer a Microsoft Agent gives is:

    It's rather frustrating for me that autocorrect and Word Flow don't work in so many apps. How can I enable these features even when the specific app or text field apparently isn't configured to support them?

    Using word flow keyboard with not supported foreign language

    Using word flow keyboard for fast typing with many foreign languages is impossible. But there is a workaround to use word flow features to create keyboard macros (custom dictionary) for not supported
    language. Here is the steps how to do this:

    A.

    1. Switch to your language
    (Bulgarian in my case) and type the desired word, for example
    клавиатура (“keyboard” in Bulgarian).

    2. Tap the word to select it.

    3. Switch to English and you will see typed word just above the keyboard preceeded by a plus (+клавиатура) and tap on it in order to add it to custom dictionary.

    4. When writing text in your language, enter the first letter and switch to English. Just above the keyboard you will see a list of words starting with this letter. If you want to shorten the list, enter
    two or more letters before switching to English.

    5. Select the word from list by tapping it.

    B.

    1. Open Contacts and create a new entry – for example, enter in the name field the word “keyboard” in Bulgarian клавиатура (or
    any word in language you prefer). In the same field you can enter more words starting with the same letter, for example клавиш (key), капачка (cap) etc.
    Add a space and period (.) after the last word, otherwise it will not be used in dictionary.

    2. When writing text in your language (Bulgarian in my case), enter the first letter
    and switch to English. Just above the keyboard you will see a list of words you’ve entered in step 1. (and any names starting with this letter from your contacts, if you have any). If you want to shorten the list, enter two or more letters before
    switching to English.

    3. Select the word from list by tapping it.

    This way you can speed up typing of common used (long) words in your language.
