I have troubles with Windows 10 keyboard settings. I wish to keep the only two languages and keyboards:
- English (United States) - US Keyboard
- Czech - Czech Keyboard
However, I see the following settings. The list of preferred languages is complete and there appear only 2 languages - these I want:
However, upon restarting, the keyboard is somehow set to 4 keyboards, which is annoying and I want to remove both United Kingdom-based keyboards:
I tried to list all the languages in the PowerShell using the command:
Get-WinUserLanguageList
Giving me the following output where only the wanted languages appear correclty:
LanguageTag : en-US
Autonym : English (United States)
EnglishName : English
LocalizedName : English (United States)
ScriptName : Latin script
InputMethodTips : {0409:00000409}
Spellchecking : True
Handwriting : False
LanguageTag : cs
Autonym : čeština
EnglishName : Czech
LocalizedName : Czech
ScriptName : Latin script
InputMethodTips : {0405:00000405}
Spellchecking : True
Handwriting : False
However, upon restarting, the United Kingdom variations of the both English and Czech are somehow imported (sometimes one of them).
I have also tried to remove the content of the following Registry folder with no luck:
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Keyboard Layout\Preload
How can I fix this issue? My only goal is to remove all languages and keyboards related to the United Kingdom at all.
My Windows version is:

Update 28/09/19: The recent Windows Update didn't fix the problem.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\CTF\SortOrder\Language
and (2)HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\CTF\SortOrder\Language
and (3)HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International\User Profile
, to delete the UK keyboard code00000809
. Check again keyHKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Keyboard Layout\Preload
to see if it was added again (don't delete the entire key). Create first a System Restore point.00000809
appeared. I did as u suggested, restarted a laptop and somehow it works as I expect. This might be worth to post as an answer, though. We'll see if the solution is permanent or temporary and I get back to you. :) Thanks.HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\CTF\SortOrder\Language
