  1. Disable the Language/Input Switcher


    I’ve followed the steps to remove the Language Bar and switch off the on-screen input indicator as detailed here, but I’m still facing an issue. Whenever I press the Windows + Spacebar, it switches the input language without me noticing. This happens even though the Language Bar is disabled.How can I completely stop this nonsense switch from happening? I don’t want to use third-party software; I’m probably looking for a built-in solution to turn this off.Thanks in advance for any help!

    :)

  2. Unwanted language or keyboard is still in the input switcher

    I can`t get rid of wrong layouts in the list of the input switcher on Windows 11.

    This problem discussed before but obvioulsy still not solved. I had to use regedit, but now it has come back.

    Microsoft should understand that there are people using two different languages. Then you need the right spell checking.

  3. How to remove unwanted keyboard from the input switcher

    • I installed the latest version of Windows 11 via Windows 11 Disk Image (ISO) provided by Microsoft Software Download.
    • During the installation of Windows, I found that the only language available is English (United Kingdom), although I use English (United States) language when browsing Microsoft website!
    • So after installing, I found that the "Windows display language" is English (United Kingdom).
    • I installed the all English (United States) features and set it as Windows display language.
    • Then I removed English (United Kingdom) from preferred languages list.
    • However, English (United Kingdom) keyboard is still in the input switcher as shown in the next snip!

    How can I:

    1. Remove English (United Kingdom) keyboard or from the input switcher?
    2. Remove English (United Kingdom) Windows display language list?
