    The keyboard layout floating window keep showing up


    I am so used to Windows XP and 7 typing and I am stuck with using ctrl + shift to switch between the two languages. However, in Windows 11, this "keyboard layout" window will show up when I switch languages. Doesn't matter when I was ingame fullscreen or anywhere really.Is there any way to switch between the two languages without this floating window showing up, while I can customize the switching hotkeys to ctrl+shift?I understand with the Chinese typing, I can switch it with shift but there is no way I can customize the hotkey.Thank you

    :)

    Keyboard Layout

    "Letters and numbers are all correct, but most of the other signs are misplaced"

    This suggests to me that you are using the wrong "keyboard language" for your keyboard, and that therefore you first step would be to determine exactly what language keyboard you have. Possibly have a look at Windows Keyboard Layouts - Globalization | Microsoft Docs.

    (The age of any laptop capable of running Windows 10 at all should not be a problem as regards keyboard layout)
