Windows 10: How to permantently remove language keyboards from my computer:

In trying to find the best language keyboard for my use, I have ended up with many now unwanted keyboards.

Somehow I ended up with multiple duplicates of the Biblical Hebrew SIL keyboard.

In addition and most urgently, Currently all the Biblical Hebrew SIL keyboards just started not working correctly - producing a the wrong character per keystroke.


1. I would like to repair my keyboard. I was planning on deleting then reinstalling the keyboard, but cannot figure out how to do that.... Somehow I also ended up with duplicates of the same keyboard.

2. I would like to simplify my options, and remove the keyboards I no longer find useful. Plus remove the duplicate and malfunctioning keyboards ofBiblical Hebrew SIL.


Thank-you in advance for your time and assistance,

:)

 

Remove secondary keyboard language.

Hi Jacob,

Removing a keyboard layout can be done through Control Panel and
Settings. Before doing so, make sure that the language pack of your preferred keyboard layout is installed on your computer. To remove a keyboard layout through
Control Panel, here's how:

• Go to Control Panel. Under Clock, Language, and Region, click
  Add a language.
  
• Click the keyboard layout that you want to remove, then click Options
  > Remove.

To remove a keyboard layout through Settings, refer to these steps:

• Go to Settings > Time & language >
  Region & language.
• Click the keyboard layout that you want to delete, then click Remove.

Feel free to post back if you have further questions.

Can't (completely) remove language keyboard layout

Yup, no such luck. My next step will be to temporarily install another language as the system language (like English UK or something), and remove US English as the default language and the keyboard, and everything, and then reboot and install it again and see if that does anything....

But I am betting it won't. And my reason is because when I was inspired to make my own keyboard layout I downloaded one another person had made, whidch was based on English UK keyboard, and it did not work correctly for me so I uninstalled it (and have since improved, I think, upon what he had done,) and I just now realized that that keyboard, which was under English language and keyboard, is still in my list as well. When I had installed it then UK English had become one of the available languages, and I have since removed it from being active and so forht. So, basically I did to UK English what I am propsing to do for US English... and yet that old keyboard layout remains.

There has to be somewhere that Windows keeps references all the different keyboard layouts available for the different language packs installed.... The question is where is that and how to modify it?
