  1. Input switching menu displays a language that isn't supposed to be there


    I have Czech, English US and Greek in my language settings, but the input switching menu also displays English UK with Greek Latin alphabet input. I did accidentally add that input in language settings months ago, but I removed it.And it happens only after waking from hibernation and if I restart everything is fine.

    :)

  2. Issue while switching between languages

    Hello,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that it can be frustrating when the features don’t work the way they are supposed to. For further clarity on the issue and to guide you accordingly, respond to the questions listed below:



    1. Have you installed Hebrew keyboard layout under English language?
    2. What happens when you try to switch the language using Windows and spacebar key together?


    I suggest you to try uninstalling and re-installing the Hebrew language and see if that helps.



    1. Go to Settings > Time & Language >
      Region & Language.
    2. Click on Hebrew
      and Click on Remove.


    After removing the language pack, refer the article to Add
    and switch input and display language preferences in Windows 10
    .



    Hope it helps.

    Problem with switching languages

    Hello Katie,

    I would suggest you follow troubleshooting steps: remove the other languages installed on your PC except for English and install these languages again:

    Press Windows + I

    Tap on Time & Language

    Tap on Region & language

    Select English which you will find under Windows display language the dropdown list

    When you are under preferred languages, ensure that English is at the top. In case you cannot find English on top, click on the English language and then click on the up arrow to move up the language.

    Remove the other languages installed on the PC.

    After that refer to Add an input language which you will find in the article

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    I understand how frustrating it could be when the features are not working properly. Please reply to the following questions to help you further.

    • How many languages are installed on the computer currently?
    • What happens when you try to switch between the languages?
    • Which edition of Windows 10 is installed on the computer?

    I suggest you to remove the other languages installed on the computer except English, and install the languages again. Please follow the steps mentioned to remove the languages:

    1. Press and hold Windows + I key on the keyboard to open Settings.
    2. Click on Time & Language.
    3. Click on Region & language.
    4. Under Windows display language, select
      English from the dropdown list.

      language is at the top. If you don’t see English language on top click on the English language and click on the up arrow to move the language at top.
    6. Now, remove the other languages installed on the computer.
