    multilingual keyboard


    Hello,

    I was wondering if it was possible to add in the next Window update an option for the keyboard.

    It would allow when you press for a long time on one key to show all the possible accents for this key.

    Just like with phone!

    It would be very practical especially with multilingual people having to write different emails using different languages.


    Thank you in advance!


    Have a good day,

    Victoire

    :)

    The keyboard changing to Canadian Multilingual Standard on its own

    My keyboard keeps changing to Canadian Multilingual Standard (ENG CMS) on its own. How can I remove this keyboard as an option so that it does not happen? I only want the US Keyboard (ENG US) listed as an option.

    In previous versions of Windows I just changed the region of the PC to US, but in Windows 10 it prevents Cortana from working.

    Randomly switching to unwanted keyboard layout


    When I type in French I use the Canadian Multilingual Standard layout. This is what I have configured in my settings and it is what worked fine for me for years until a week or two ago (which suggests the April update may have had something to do with it).

    Now when I switch to French I find that I am often in another layout which I believe to be the Canadian French layout, although I am not completely sure. It is similar to the Canadian multilingual with the most notable difference being that the è and the / are swapped round. I have never chosen the Canadian French keyboard in my preferences and it isn't listed there now. Canadian Multilingual is what is listed.

    What's even more annoying is that the layout seems to switch randomly between Canadian Multilingual and Canadian French while I am typing, so I am never really sure what is going to happen when I try to type an è.

    How can I get my keyboard to consistently be Canadian Multilingual when I am typing in French?
