@bo elam and to everyone else, I know this is an old thread, but I found the proper solution to finally disable WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe without the need to rename the folder or the file executable!

In a command prompt or powershell (admin) copy and paste this entire code, this includes reg add and the speech marks:

Code:

reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe" /v Debugger /d "%SystemRoot%\system32\systray.exe" /f
taskkill /im "WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe" /t /f 
echo done

To undo the changes, copy and paste this code:

Code:

reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe" /v Debugger /f
echo done

This is important, because now you don't have to keep renaming the InputApp_cw5n1h2txyewy folder anymore. Because what happened previously is that renaming that folder does not disable the erroneous behaviour with the Microsoft Text Input Application, it was still attempting to launch even though it was renamed or manually deleted.

This meant that if you had to do an SFC /Scannow Windows will find integrity violation and restore an extra InputApp_cw5n1h2txyewy folder again and then the renamed folder will have had to be deleted manually once again.

Now you don't have to worry about that anymore and SFC /Scannow will no longer show integrity violation as the folder or file executable will no longer need to be renamed! I hope this helps, I should have known this earlier!

Looks like this doesn't work after all in W10 2004. TextInputHost.exe reappears after a system restart, although not sure if it's related to TextInput.InputApp.exe or not.

Well common sense, innit. It's not going to work in your case because the name is TextInputHost.exe and the code I posted is for
WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe

Now what you can do is try to rename from the code and replace this... WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe with your TextInputHost.exe and hopefully that should take care of the problem.

I'm on Windows 10 1903 and I haven't had this thing run in the background on a single occasion ever since I have done that more than 2 months.
Unless of-course in version 2004 the application had been changed then that's another matter and the code will need to be re-updated to reflect the change. Otherwise it will not work, of-course.

Just turn off the options below (and restart or kill the process from task manager):

Oh no i thought it worked. And it is baaaaaaaaack

I don't want to rename file, is there any way how to get rid of this?

I recently found great tutorial on minitool.com how to disable gamebarpresencewriter! It was some hidden key in registry.

It is probably the same case with this one, just to find it

Code:
reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe" /v Debugger /d "%SystemRoot%\system32\systray.exe" /f
taskkill /im "WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe" /t /f
echo done

After copying and pasting this in CMD or PowerShell the Text Input will be disabled. I haven't had it run in the background since applying this 10 months ago.

Ok it seems it is working, after restart long enough time. And it is not popping up, while it always shows little bit after booting windows... Thank you very much!

How did you even found this key? I knew it will probably have name of app, or process in itself, but there are still many permutations to go through and many keys and values...
