  1. Windows 11 keeping adding unwanted keyboard to my PC


    Hello,Each time I restart my PC, Windows adds a keyboard to the list without asking it to me. It is really annoying because when I do Windows+space it's confusing.Moreover, if I want to delete the extra keyboard, I need to ADD it myself, before deleting it...Here are my layouts. I have a laptot with a Japanese keyboard and I am using my system in British English; but since I'm French, I am typing with a French AZERTY USB-keyboard. Then my layouts are English United Kingdom French and Japanese Microsoft IME. But Windows add all the time the English United Kingdom Japanese, that I don't want

  2. Windows keeps adding languages to my keyboard.

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    We understand the difficulties that you are facing with the PC as the keyboard language keeps adding. We appreciate your effort in troubleshooting the issue and providing us the detail information.



    In this scenario, we would suggest you to perform these methods and check if that helps.



    Method 1: Registry change.

    1. Press Windows + R key to launch the
      Run command.
    2. Type regedit and click on
      Ok.

    3. Navigate to this location: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Keyboard Layout\Preload
    4. Now from right pane remove/delete the entries with data value
      00000409, 00000809 & 00000407
    5. Close the registry, restart the PC and check.


    Note: Important this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify
    the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.




    Follow the steps to take
    backup of registry.




    Method 2: New user account

    Check in new user account. Follow the steps from the article

    Create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10
    to create a new user account and check if you are facing the same issue with the keyboard language.



    Let us know how it goes,

  3. HP 15-r029wm Notebook PC windows 10 keyboard not working properly

    Hi,

    I realize that the keyboard is not working properly. I will try to help you with this issue.


    • Did you make any changes to the PC prior to this issue?
    Suggest you to plug in an external keyboard to check if that helps.

    Follow these steps to launch the On-screen keyboard:


    • Press Windows key + R to get the run window.

    • Type “osk” and hit enter to launch the On-screen keyboard and check if this helps.

    Keep us informed to help you further.

    Thank you.
