I have 2 languages installed on my computer, both with a single input method.
I have 2 keyboards: CES-CSQ and ENG-US.
However lately (maybe after the last Win10 update) I started to see 2 additional keyboards in my systray – namely CES-CS and ENG-CSQ.
Is there there a way to remove those 2 input options (CES-CS, ENG-CSQ) which I do not see in the Control panel’s Language options?
Solution described at How to delete a keyboard in Windows 10 question does not apply to my problem because I do not see input options that I want remove in Control panel’s Language options.
Solution:
(Credits to Jonno whose answer led me to the solution)
Go to systray and open Language preferences
. Click Options
for each language that has an extra kayboard that you want to remove.
In Keyboards
section click Add a keyboard
and select a keyboard that appears in your systray and which you want to remove. This adds a new input option for the selected language. After you add the keyboard, click it and click on a Remove
button. After that, the keyboard should disappear also from systray.
(Note that I did not see a keyboard which I want remove in Keyboards
section thus I had to add it first to be able to remove it afterwards.)
EDIT: bugybunny’s answer helped me to prevent keyboard layouts from magically appearing whenever I connected to my PC via remote desktop (which they regularly did).
