Use 'ctrl' for switching keyboard layout in Win7

Question

I've been switching keyboard layouts in Windows with Alt+Shift. But I want to do it with a single key only (such as ctrl). Is it possible?

Answer 1

Ctrl is usually taken as a modifier, not as a key.

But you may use a macro product like AutoHotkey, to define a macro that translates one of your Ctrl keys to Alt+Shift.

Or it might be easier to use a keyboard-mapping product such as SharpKeys or KeyTweak :
