    Unable to remove a 'default' language/keyboard layout


    I keep having an annoying problem.
    I have only 1 language with 1 keyboard layout in Language settings

    But the system keep changing keyboard layout (when restarting or resuming from sleep)

    Indeed, if I press WIN+SPACE I can see both layouts!

    I can I remove (forever) the unwanted layout (in this case ENG INTL) if I cannot even see it in settings?

    Thank you,

    Dear dalchina,
    thank you for the reply, but I am probably missing something.
    As you can see from the attached picture, language settings DOES NOT list the keyboard layout I want to remove (ENG INTL). So, how can I remove a layout that is not listed in the Language settings?

    In Settings/Time Languages/Region. Make sure you are in the correct Region and Regional Format.
    Go to Typing and make sure settings are correct
    Go to Advanced Keyboard settings, make sure Use Language List is selected and Switching input methods are unchecked.

    Thank you.
    I was able to get rid of unwanted keyboard layouts (not showed in the Language/option/keyboard layout panel) but installed in the system, by adding and removing them (in the aforementioned panel).
