    How to delete redundant Keyboard layouts that i've installed?


    I need to delete all the redundant keyboard layouts which I accidentally installed several times.I've tried removing language via PowerShell, and when I reinstalled the language - all those keyboards duplicates appear again.Notice: I need to get rid of duplicate keyboard layouts, not language itself. I want to delete all those duplicates and install it again.

    :)

    Keyboard Layout

    "Letters and numbers are all correct, but most of the other signs are misplaced"

    This suggests to me that you are using the wrong "keyboard language" for your keyboard, and that therefore you first step would be to determine exactly what language keyboard you have. Possibly have a look at Windows Keyboard Layouts - Globalization | Microsoft Docs.

    (The age of any laptop capable of running Windows 10 at all should not be a problem as regards keyboard layout)
