Windows keyboard shortcut change keyboard layout - Доктор Windows

Is there any way to set keyboard shortcuts to quickly change to a different language/keyboard layout? The old shortcuts still seem to work (when set back in Windows 7), but I can’t seem to find anything to change it in Windows 10.

Go to Control Panel → Clock, Language, and Region → Change input methods (under Language) → Advanced settings → Change language bar hot keys.

In Windows 10 version 1809 (also versions 1903, 1909, 2004, 20H2), the setting described in the accepted answer is here:

Settings -> Time & Language -> Language -> Spelling, typing, & keyboard settings -> Advanced keyboard settings -> Language bar options -> Advanced Key Settings.

Step-by-step screenshots.

Known issues

These hotkeys are quite buggy since 2012 or so.
They may disappear (the setting is cleared or simply not working) after a windows update, after an RDP session, after logout/login, or even without any obvious reason.

There’s one well-known workaround, that usually helps:

Settings -> Time & Language -> Language -> Administrative language settings -> Copy settings... -> tick both checkboxes -> OK.

If you ran into this, you may want to upvote some of these items on the FeedbackHub:

As a regular (non-insider) user:

Input language hotkeys keep being reset every time Windows starts
language bar hot keys are not reliable: a) sometimes they disappear …
Language bar hotkeys get erased after every RDP session
Language bar hot key setting keeps resetting back to default I’m using 3 languages input
When I set up language bar ‘hot key’ shortcuts to switch to keyboards with other alphabets, they are deleted whenever Windows restarts!
Language hotkeys keep disappeared by itself every time the system was rebooted.
Language hotkeys keep getting erased
Windows auto reset language input hotkey in every reboot after I make changes to the setting.

As insider:

Keyboard layout switching shortcuts disappear and do not work
Hot keys for input languages getting erased on each windows feature update
Keyboard layout changes randomly
Windows keeps switching the language and keyboard input methods

The menu in the accepted answer does not exist in Control Panel anymore on Windows 10 version 1803 (not sure about 1709 and older).

But the same setting is accessible from Modern Settings app → Time & Language → Region and Language → Advanced keyboard settings (from the Related settings section) → Language bar options → Advanced Key Settings tab.

Update: Windows 10 version 1809 moved this setting again. see i3v’s answer.

Unfortunately this has changed in the latest Windows 10 update. You now need to go to ‘Languages’ and then ‘Advanced settings’ in Control panel, and choose ‘Change language bar hot keys’:

Which will then bring up this dialogue from which you can change the hot key by clicking ‘Change Key Sequence…’

For the latest Windows version since late 2018/ early 2019, Microsoft has changed this:

select «Language Preferences» from the Task Bar/ Language options control (docked language bar)
Select «Spelling, typing, & keyboard settings» under «Related Settings» at the top right.
Scroll down to the bottom, then under «More keyboard settings», select «Advanced keyboard settings».
Under «Switching input methods», select «Language bar options».
Choose the «Advanced Key Settings» tab.
Press the button at the bottom of the window: «Change Key Sequence…»

I hope Microsoft will not leave these vital settings in such an obscure place, in the long term (that they will at least give more convenient alternative ways of adjusting these settings!) The default settings are infuriating: I am forever accidentally pressing CTRL+SHIFT and accidentally switching between keyboard layouts…

Just wanted to add to the accepted answer. I am using an Apple keyboard on Windows 10 here and the best way for me to switch input languages is to turn off the shortcut «Between input languages» completely and instead set individual shortcuts for each input language, for example:

Left Alt + Shift + 1(US Keyboard)
Left Alt + Shift + 2(UK Keyboard)
Left Alt + Shift + 3(Any other input language)
Left Alt + Shift + …
Left Alt + Shift + 0(10th input language)

I find this setting the only one that doesn’t disturb my work all the time as occasionally pressing Alt + Shift changes language when it is not needed. Also if to remove all shortcuts from the settings then holding WIN (CMD on Apple keyboard) followed by [space](press multiple times to iterate the list) or [1,2,3..] or [Select with mouse] works well too.

I’m running Windows Server 2019 at work and the setting is (again) in a different spot. Since any and all tooling you might use on a Server uses hotkeys, many of which start with the Ctrl + Shift or Left Alt + Shift that trigger the language switch, the only reasonable setting is to have those turned off.

Here’s how:

Settings → Devices → Typing (left panel) → Advanced keyboard settings (right panel, bottom) → Language bar options → Advanced Key Settings (the right-most tab in the new window) → Change Key Sequence… (button at the bottom) → Not Assigned (top option)

The Win + Space hot-key still works after turning the above setting to Not Assigned, so you can still switch easily without switching accidentally.

Otherwise, you might not be able to sign in. You can change your keyboard layout on the sign-in screen by tapping or clicking the language abbreviation button in the lower-right corner.

Change the keyboard layout or other method you use to type

Whenever you add a language, a keyboard layout or input method is added so you can enter text in the language. If you want to use a different keyboard layout or input method, you can add a new one or switch between the ones you have.

Your default keyboard layout or input method is the one that’s automatically used with the language you see Windows in (for example, the QWERTY keyboard for American English). If you want to keep your Windows language the same but use a different keyboard automatically, follow these steps:

Open Control Panel by swiping in from the right edge of the screen, tapping Search (or if you’re using a mouse, pointing to the upper-right corner of the screen, moving the mouse pointer down, and then clicking Search), entering Control Panel in the search box, and then tapping or clicking Control Panel.

Install or change a display language

You can change the language Windows uses to display text in wizards, dialog boxes, menus, and other items in the user interface. Some display languages are installed by default, while others require you to install additional language files.

To install a Language Interface Pack (LIP), double-click the file to open the setup program. To install a language pack, follow these steps:

Note: The Display language section will be visible only if you have already installed a Language Interface Pack or if your edition of Windows supports a language pack. Language packs are available only in Windows 7 Ultimate and Windows 7 Enterprise.

When you change the display language, the text in menus and dialog boxes for some programs might not be in the language that you want. This happens because the program might not support Unicode.

Open Region and Language by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking Clock, Language, and Region, and then clicking Region and Language.
Click the Keyboards and Languages tab.
Under Display language, choose a language from the list, and then click OK.

Note: If you don’t see the list of display languages, you need to install additional language files.

Recent Windows 10 builds come with a new «Region & Language» page in the Settings app. It completely replaces the classic «Language» applet of Control Panel, which is removed starting with Windows 10 Build 17063. The new page allows users to change the display language, text-to-speech, speech recognition, and handwriting options. Here is how to change hotkeys to switch keyboard layout in Windows 10 because the UI for it has changed.

If you upgraded to Windows 10 Build 17074, its new language options can look strange to you. Unlike previous releases, it does not include the Language settings UI in the Control Panel. Now you have to use Settings to configure language settings in Windows 10.

By default, Windows 10 comes with two predefined keyboard shortcuts to switch layouts: one of them is the old, familiar Alt + Shift key combination and the other is Win + Space key combination. However, some users also changed the key sequence to Ctrl + Shift or the Grave accent (`), located below Esc. Because of redesigned settings, it may not be so obvious how to change this hotkey.

As of this writing, Windows 10 Build 17074 is most recent release of the OS. It doesn’t offer any Settings page which could allow you to change the hotkeys for the input language. Instead, it offers a link which opens the classic Control Panel applet. Ironically, this applet is not accessible from the classic Control Panel any more! The situation should be changed with the final release version of Windows 10 version 1803. Here are a couple of workarounds we found that you can use in the mean time to change the hotkeys to switch keyboard layout in Windows 10 Builds 17063 and above.

To change hotkeys to switch keyboard layout in Windows 10, do the following.

Open Settings.
Go to Time & language — Keyboard.
Click on the Advanced keyboard settings link.
Update: Starting with build 17083, the Advanced Options link was moved to Devices — Typing. The Keyboard page was eliminated.
There, click on the link Language bar options.
This will open the familiar dialog «Text Services and Input Languages».Tip: This dialog can be opened directly with the following command:
Rundll32 Shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL input.dll,,{C07337D3-DB2C-4D0B-9A93-B722A6C106E2}
Switch to the Advanced Key Settings tab.
Select Between input languages in the list.
Click on the button Change key sequence, select the new key, and click OK.

You are done.

An alternative way you can use is a simple Registry tweak.

Change hotkeys with a Registry tweak

Open the Registry Editor app.
Go to the following Registry key.
```
ComputerHKEY_CURRENT_USERKeyboard LayoutToggle
```
See how to go to a Registry key with one click.
On the right, modify or create a new string (REG_SZ) value named Hotkey.
Set it to one of the following values:
1 — Key Sequence enabled; use LEFT ALT+SHIFT to switch between locales.
2 — Key Sequence enabled; use CTRL+SHIFT to switch between locales.
3 — Key Sequences disabled.
4 — The grave accent key (`), located below Esc toggles input locales.
To make the changes done by the Registry tweak take effect, you need to sign out and sign in to your user account.

You are done.

If you are running the stable version of Windows 10, refer to the following article:

How to configure language settings in Windows 10

The method described in the mentioned article works in all previously released Windows 10 versions and builds prior to Windows 10 Build 17063.

Windows 10 asks you to configure additional keyboard layouts during the initial setup. However, you can always add or remove layouts if you didn’t choose the correct one or must type in another language.

Usually, it’s uncommon to change the input settings, but there many situations when you might need to. For example, sometimes you may need to switch to the Spanish layout to write words that include special characters like «Ñ,» or prefer a different layout, such as the United States-Dvorak.

Regardless of the reason, Windows 10 ships with easy settings to add, remove, and change layouts for hardware and touch keyboards.

This guide will walk you through the steps to manage keyboard layouts on Windows 10.

Sometimes users will be using multiple languages in their writing on Windows 10. The text can be totally in a different language or just some special characters from other languages. This is why users need to use different keyboard layouts to use those characters for their text. Now we all know that Windows provides multiple keyboard layouts for users to add. However, changing them without any shortcuts will be time-consuming and pretty annoying. There are some default shortcut keys that users can use and some can set their own shortcut keys for each keyboard layout differently.

Also, a method through which users can set custom hotkeys for each keyboard layout. In addition to that, we have included a method through which users can add and remove a keyboard layout on their Windows 10.

Default Shortcuts for Changing Keyboard Layout

Windows already have default shortcuts for most of the options. Changing the keyboard layout from one language to another can be done easily by pressing a few shortcut keys.

Click on the keyboard layout in the notification area of the taskbar and select the layout you want.
Changing keyboard layouts through taskbar
Press the LeftAlt+Shift keys to change the keyboard layout from one to another.

Обратите внимание! В статье далее будет рассказано о том, как менять раскладку клавиатуры и по необходимости назначить для этой цели другое сочетание клавиш. Эта задача не имеет прямого отношения к смене языка ввода.

Читайте также: Как сменить сочетание клавиш для переключения языка в Windows 11

Раскладка – это фактически тип клавиатуры, то, каким образом размещены на ней клавиши. Наиболее распространенной и повсеместно используемой на физических и виртуальных средствах ввода является QWERTY (ЙЦУКЕН), но также есть Dvorak (машинопись), Colemak (ЯШЕРТЫ) и фонетическая, где кириллические символы расположены на относительно созвучных с ними латинских.

Для того чтобы задать или поменять сочетание клавиш, с помощью которого будет осуществляться переключение раскладки в ОС Виндовс 11 придерживайтесь следующего алгоритма:

Воспользовавшись клавишами «Win+I» или меню «Пуск», откройте «Параметры» операционной системы.

Далее перейдите к разделу настроек «Время и язык».

Разверните категорию «Ввод».

Действия, аналогичные вышеуказанным, можно выполнить и через меню индикатора языковой раскладки в панели задач, где необходимо сначала выбрать опцию «Дополнительные настройки клавиатуры»,

а затем перейти к категории «Ввод».

Откройте подкатегорию опций «Дополнительные параметры клавиатуры».

Кликните по надписи «Сочетания клавиш для языков ввода».

Во вкладке «Переключение языка» появившегося окна «Языки и службы текстового ввода» выделите пункт «Переключить язык ввода» и нажмите на кнопку «Сменить сочетание клавиш».

Обратите внимание! Вместо общего для всех языков способа переключения вы можете назначить отдельный на конкретный язык – для этого в списке «Действие» необходимо выделить именно его.
В колонке «Смена раскладки клавиатуры» выберите предпочтительную комбинацию клавиш и нажмите «ОК» для подтверждения. На выбор доступны следующие варианты:
- «Не назначено»;
- «Ctrl+Shift»;
- «Alt+Shift»;
- «Ё» или знак ударения «`».
Обратите внимание! По умолчанию для переключения раскладки используется «Ctrl+Shift», но иногда комбинация клавиш для выполнения данного действия может быть не назначена. Главное в данном случае – не использовать сочетание, заданное для смены языка ввода, иначе оно будет попросту отключено.
Для применения внесенных изменений и закрытия окна «Языки и службы текстового ввода» последовательно нажмите на кнопки «Применить» и «ОК».

В дальнейшем, когда потребуется поменять раскладку клавиатуры, используйте выбранную на предыдущем шаге комбинацию клавиш.
