Windows 10: No way to install French Canada CAFR keyboard in windows 10 1903

Hi, thank you for being here.

At this point I just cannot work with my new PC, because of this keyboard is unavailable. I spend hours daily to type for my work.

Previously in window 10, it uses to be many options: Canadian Multilingual CMS, French Canada FRA (both are the same) and "Canada French" CAFR , wich is very different, and which I am looking for.

In the new 1903 interface, all languages are alphabetically listed by language and country... My idea is that doing so Microsoft changed "Canada French" for "French Canada" and doing so get a second"French Canada", thought it was the same, and discarded the good one. Doing so, the two left to choose from are alike.

By the way,this is the "standard" keyboard here, since old IBM typewritter times...

I looked everywhere on the net: they are many how-to or guide for that, but all these solutions are for previous version of Windows 10 which don't apply with the new interface and options.

Is is a way I may download this keyboard and add it to the list ? To buy it from somewhere or else?
Or to copy it from another Windows 10 PC and add it myself (but how? )

I do really do need it.
Thank you.

Note
In CAFR keyboard he accents and special symbols commonly used are differently placed, and all easily available. This is a different layout than Canadian Multilingual French CMS or French Canada (legacy) FRA layout (who are similar).
By the way, here it is the original standard keyboard here since IBM typewriter old times... Sure not the one to be discarded. Here is a pic from wikipedia .

How to remove French CAFR keyboard config

I have my Surface Book 2 setup in English as the Windows and Office language.

OS Build 17134.376. MS Office Build 11001.20074.

I have my keyboard layout as FRA CMS.

Sometimes (well often actually) Windows switches keyboard layout to FRA CAFR.

I do NOT have FRA CAFR installed in my control panel (Advanced Keyboard Settings). Just French CMS and English CMS.

How do I get rid of that damn CAFR keyboard layout ?????

Merci

 

Can't delete french keyboard input!


For some reason, on my mother's PC on which a guy upgraded the PC from Windows 7, the French of France keyboard will not allow to be deleted. The France French keyboard is not in the list of input methods but it still shows in the language bar.

Windows is in French and the main language is French from France. It is the same here on my own computer and I do not have the French France keyboard, only French Canada.

Is there any solution ?

 

Keyboard languages are all over the place (English US/Canada, Canadian French)

Hi Yetong,

In order for me to address your concern, I would like to know the following:

• What is the version and build of your Windows 10?
  • You can have this checked by pressing the Windows button + R on your keyboard to open the Run box, then type winver and press Enter.
• Just to clarify, are you trying to perform the following:
  • Keep the keyboard layout on English (US).
  • Remove the
    English (Canada).
  • Keep Frech (Canada) as you language.

In the meantime, I suggest for you to try removing other languages under
French (Canada) and also adding a keyboard layout on the language itself. This way we'd be able to isolate the issue further. By doing this, this would ensure that the system langauge would be the language of your choice and the keyboard layout based
on the language of your choice. Be advised to ensure that you choose the
QWERTY format available for your language of your choice, or a keyboard format (e.g. QWERTY, AZERT, etc.) of the language of your choice.

I'll be waiting for your response to assist you further.
