    Grave accent won't switch language while typing

    Hi I am on a newly bought PC using windows 10 home with Thai and English languages.

    With my previous other-PC experience, I could press the grave accent to switch language on the go while I am typing rapidly and it won't care whether I am typing or not, it would just change the language right away once I press the "grave accent."

    Now with this new PC while a button is being pressed, your grave accent command will be completely ignored. I have to stop touching a key before I can press it to switch language. This makes it extremely uncomfortable and confusing.

    I wonder if there is a tweak I can do to use the "grave accent" to switch language regardless what other key I am pressing.

  3. How to fix error when press Grave Accent for change language?

    I'd submit this problem to Microsoft and they said that Windows does not support change language with Grave Accent. They let me use another key for switch language.

    Very funny that Thailand use Grave Accent to switch language for more than ten years but Microsoft never realize that.

    After I've continuous complained Microsoft for this problem since Office 2007, 2010, 2013, and 2016, (around 8 years) couple months ago (begining of Year 2017) Microsoft just realize and promise that they will start investigate the Grave Accesnt hot key
    problem.

    AMAZINGGGGG!!!!!!!!

    Until now still no fix for this problem yet.

    From my experience tempoprary fix this problem from more than 8 years, with hundreds of computers.

    Outlook 2013, 2016, 365:

    1. Uninstall Office, Uninstall Office language pack

    2. Restart computer

    3. Install Office, Install language pack, run full Office update.

    If Outlook 2007 or 2010, need to uninstall and reinstall Outlook Social Connector might a bit help.

    The problem will be gone for maybe couple month, then will come back again.

    Or for permanently fix this problem recommended by Microsoft, change "grave accent" to another key (example, Ctrl + shift).

    Hope it help.

    Why I have to press grave accent 3 times to change to another language?

    The first character always inputs a ` (grave accent) after switching language to English.

    I have two languages installed: English and Thai, with the switch-language key set to Grave Accent.

    The Grave Accent key switches language for me just fine, except, after switching language, the first character in the latter language -no matter what key I pressed- always inputs as the Grave Accent key. For example, typing [grave accent]youtube will give me
    `outube, and typing [graveaccent] าษา will give me _าษา.)

    This happens everywhere regardless of the program I'm using, MSWord, Notepad, Chrome's address bar, etc.

    It's very troublesome when I need to type long report and switching between languages has become a big typo hazard. I've set the switch-language key to Ctrl+Shift for the time being, but I need to know how to fix this.

    Thank you in advance.
