Simplify the use of multiple languages on desktop computers

Administrators can configure desktop computers to simplify work in multiple languages. For example, you can add a language toolbar on the desktop or a language icon on the taskbar to make it easier for users to switch between input languages when they need to create documents in multiple languages. You can also enable certain key sequences that allow users to quickly switch between installed input languages and other keyboard and IME configurations.

Add the language bar to the desktop or taskbar

  • In the Control Panel, under Clock, Language and Region, click Edit keyboards or other input methods.
  • Click Edit Keyboards, then click the Language Bar tab.
  • In the Text Services and Input Languages dialog box, under Settings, click the language bar.
  • On the Language Bar tab, select the check boxes corresponding to the language bar and taskbar options you want to enable.

  • In the Edit Typing dialog box, select the options that correspond to the typing and actions you want to use so that a user can switch between the installed typing languages or keyboard layout and IMEs.
