    Keyboard language keeps changing


    Hi,


    The language setting on my keyboard keep changing and switching the keyboard from US to UK. Further, the UK language is not configured on my PC as can be seen in this picture. I have check Office, again UK is not installed (see the other pic). Any ideas as to what's going on?

    Thank you.

    Great! I found it by searching Input method as you suggested (full path is Settings -> Typing -> Advanced keyboard settings).
    - I've set "Override for default input language" to "French (Canada)" instead of "Use language list".
    - "Let me use a different input method for each app" was already unchecked
    - I've disabled the key sequence to switch between input languages in (Language bar options -> Advanced key settings)

    I hope it did the trick, I'll mark this as solved if the keyboard does not change back by tomorrow.

    Thank you!

    Hello Charlie,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    1. Since when are you facing this issue?
    2. Have you installed Spanish Keyboard in your desktop?


    You can follow the steps to fix the issue.



    Method 1:



    Removing other keyboard layouts.



    1. Go to Settings > Time & Language >
      Region & Language.
    2. Click on Spanish
      and Click on Remove.
    3. Now add the Spanish language again from
      Region & Language under
      Settings.


    Also, if you are using an older build of Windows 10, you can refer to the suggestions by

    Monica Cam
    dated 10th October 2016.



    Method 2:



    Changing the language preference to English only.



    1. Go to Settings > Devices >
      Typing.
    2. Under More keyboard settings click on
      Advanced keyboard settings.
    3. Now under Override for default input method select
      English.
    4. Restart the computer.


    Hope it helps.

    Windows 10 keyboard language keeps changing


    Hi,
    So here is my problem: I only have one preferred language in my language settings. In that preferred language, I only have one keyboard layout, Canadian french. But for some reason, it keeps changing, and it's getting frustrating. I only want one keyboard layout, why does Windows keeps adding more and changing it?
