Can't Change Input Language

Jun 21, 2014

Using Windows 8.1. I have English and Japanese input languages added, and both are listed as options in the language toolbar, but it is impossible to select anything but English. Windows+Space allows me to navigate to Japanese, but releasing the keys or pressing Enter does nothing. The Left Alt+Shift shortcut also does nothing.

Sony Vaio Duo 11 - How To Change The Language

Oct 6, 2013

My ex wife (Chinese) gave my daughter a Sony Vaio Duo 11, it is all in Chinese and for the life of me i cannot change it to English. I have tried a factory recovery, Still comes up in chinese, i have tried changing the language and nothing is available for download. I tried installing language packs but all failed with one reason or other.

Have Recovery Media in English for this machine, I have purchased a Windows 8 Pro Full edition to install but obviously will not contain all the duo 11 drivers and Vaio care files. But I guess I can use the Registration Key with no problems. (I hope)

So far I have wasted 4 days trying to do this, and everything is still in Chinese, the model number is SVD112A1ST.

Change Lock Screen Language And Time Format?

Jan 27, 2013

How do I change the lock-screen language/time format?

Open the following in a text editor: C:Users<Username>AppDataRoamingMicrosoftWind owsLogonUserSetti ngs.ini

For example, the settings below changed the clock to 24 hour format and show month/day in Dutch.

Code:
[GlobalizationPreferences]
TimeFormat=HH:mm tt
LocaleName=en-US
GeographicRegion=US
Calendar=GregorianCalendar
Clock=24HourClock
Languages=nl-NL

It is not working for me. Does it only work in the Windows 8 previews?

The officially released Windows 8 doesn't have a "Logon" folder, but I created one and put "UserSettings.ini":

Code:
[GlobalizationPreferences]
TimeFormat=hh:mm:ss tt
LocaleName=en-US
GeographicRegion=US
Calendar=GregorianCalendar
Clock=12HourClock
Languages=en-US

Language Bar In Windows 8

Mar 19, 2013

There is setting in windows 8 "Use desktop language bar when it's available" it makes language bar like it was in windows 7. But it doesn't seem to work correctly it doesn't appear when windows starts it only appears if you change language with keyboard short cut (for example shift+alt or shift+ctrl you can change that in settings).

I have set 3 input languages so it should be there and I need to use it.. windows default language preference select menu works but language bar doesn't.

Windows 8.1 Changes Language Settings By Itself

Nov 19, 2013

my default language setting (keyboard layout) is Swedish.For some reason Windows 8.1 changes this setting to English.

I have tried to install and then uninstall the English keyboard layout (so that Swedish is the only one available) but Windows doesn't care if the layout is actually installed or not. Here is a screenshot:

Windows changes this setting on a whim, it seems to happen the most when starting up the computer. I had this problem with Windows 8 as well.

Windows 8.1 Language Keeps Changing?

Jul 5, 2014

my Keyboard language input keeps changing from English (UK) to English (US)... pretty much all of my passwords have an @ sign in them so you can imaging how annoying this is lol.

This seems heavily related to my mouse - SteelSeries - World of Warcraft : Cataclysm? MMO Gaming Mouse / the control panel for that mouse as it only started happening after installing this mouse (both home and work pc).

I have tried to add English (US) >> Set it as Primary >> Then remove English (US).

Doing this removes the English (US) keyboard completely which is what I want/expect but then it comes back again after a short while?

Is it possible to change the English (US) keys to match that of the English (UK) so even if it does change to English (US) it wouldn't be a problem anyway?

I installed windows 8.1 pro preview successfully in English, and since I use French very often, I installed and changed the display language into French. I also checked two options concerning the welcome screen and account users to display them all in French and worked perfectly.

I noticed the watermark before changing the display language into French, then followed this method to remove it : How to Remove Windows 8.1 Preview Watermark | MyTechBlog the method worked fine, but when I changed into French the watermark turned out again, then repeated the same method until I removed it.

when I finished I noticed that "My Computer" which appears as "This PC" + "Control Panel" + when I open Control Panel everything appear in English. but my display language now is French except the aforesaid.

Setup Installation :: German Language After Installing Windows 8

Dec 24, 2013

Laptop with pre-installed Windows 8 on it. The salesman at the MediaMarkt said that these Laptops are already with pre-installed Windows 8 and also assured me that I can choose English as a language when I am running the laptop. But, when I installed it, the system chose German language and I am really having trouble to understand everything now. My Problem is here how to install Windows 8 with English language and another thing is when I installed the program, it has asked me an Microsoft E-Mail address, but by mistake I installed it with my gmx.de E-Mail address, which means that I am unable to use the Apps in the Computer as it has been asking only Microsoft account, I cant deactivate my gmx.de account which I used when I installed the OS Windows 8 to this Computer.

Cannot Restore / Refresh Windows 8.1 Single Language Edition

May 29, 2014

I've got a problem with Windows 8.1 Single Language Edition 64-bit (English/Russian/Ukrainian).

When Windows 8 updated to 8.1 last year through the Store, I lost the ability to Restore and Refresh (a feature I had used several times previously).

Since then I have been using the same installation of 8.1, and it has finally become too laggy and bloated and I need desperately to Restore (files are all backed up and removed from computer, ready for Restore).

Things I have tried already:

- Found my Product Key using a keyfind program. My version of 8.1 came preintalled on the laptop, no DVD case, or e-mails with Key.
- Made a recovery USB Flash Drive (my laptop doesn't have a DVD drive). Recovery drive works when I boot from BIOS, but says it is invalid when I try to Restore.
- Tried to download an official ISO file from Microsoft, but the site says my Product Key is invalid (its not invalid).
- Tried using the Enterprise Trial ISO to Restore, and am now stuck with an expired trial copy of Enterprise.

I still have the Recovery Partition, and didn't delete it when I made the Recovery USB.

My computer is an ASUS Zenbook prime UX31A. All I want is to Restore. Even if its back to Win 8. I do not understand why all options seem to be broken since the update to 8.1. It seems intentional.

I want to Restore legitimately, and use the product I bought legitimately. But if this continues I may have to seek "alternatives".
