    It does not seem immediately possible to set Google Input Tools Offline as the default IME editor package in the Windows operating system. Some of the reasons for this are as follows:Operating System Development:The Windows operating system is developed by Microsoft, and the default IME editors are determined by Microsoft itself.Google Input Tools is developed by Google and is available as a separate software.Products of Different Companies:Both Microsoft and Google are major technology companies, and their products compete with each other.Therefore, it is unlikely that Microsoft would include

  2. Ghost Keystrokes Problems with Windows 10 upgrade with Google Input tools

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you are facing this issue with Google Input tools.
    Sorry for the inconvenience this has caused.

    "I could see the Google Input tools in the task bar", don't you have an option to uninstall the program from(inside) the software/utility?

    If not, you may follow the below steps.

    1. Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open the task manager, Click on the start-up tab.

    2. Now check if the old Google Input tools is listed, if found, you may disable it.

    3. Now restart the system and check.

    If the issue still persist, you may follow the below steps.

    1. In the search option of the taskbar type the name of the old google Input tools utility.

    2. Once the tool is listed in the search results. Right click on it and select uninstall.

    Hope the information helps. Do reply if you need further assistance.

    Is it possible to add in Vietnamese IME when typing? I like it to type like Google Inputs.

    Is it possible to add in Vietnamese IME when typing? I like it to type it like Google Inputs. On Chrome – Google Input Tools . When you type they put
    up word suggestion when you type on keyboard. I think typing this way faster and you don't have press more keys on the keyboard that much. Please add it in. High Priority I wish typing Vietnamese was more like Google Inputs for Windows 10 when typing on
    a keyboard. Very less priority is please add in Voice Input for Vietnamese like Gboard!

    Setting the default input method for the Windows 10 login screen

    I had the same question but with French being the default on Windows 10 rather than the one I wanted so I ended up here.

    HoD is very close. I was able to use his suggestion to find the solution for me. This solution uses your current display and input language to change the Welcome screen and possible for new user accounts if you want. So make sure you have the display and input settings while logged in that you want to apply to the login screen before doing the steps:

    1. Click the language on the Taskbar.
    2. Then click Language preferences.
    3. At the bottom under "Related settings," click "additional date, time, & regional settings" which opens the control panel
    4. Click the "Region" option
    5. Then go to the far right tab "Administrative". (HoD's step 2)
    6. In the "Welcome screen and new user accounts" click copy settings. (HoD's step 3)
    7. Tick "Welcome screen and system accounts" (and "new user accounts" if you want it to be applied to those as well). (HoD's step 4)
    8. Click Ok. (HoD's step 5)

    I was able to use HoD's suggestion to find the solution here. It's for Windows 8.1, but works on 10 so far.

    Hope it will help you, too!
