    Issue with German Language Reappearing After Windows Updates


    Hello,I recently purchased a laptop in Germany, and it came with Windows set to the German display language. I manually added English as the display language and removed both the German display and keyboard languages.However, after every single Windows update, the German keyboard language is automatically re-added, and the German display language also returns. This happens even though I’ve removed them from the system settings.The main issue is that the German keyboard language does not appear in the language settings UI, so I’m forced to remove it manually each time through the Registry Edito
