How do I turn off suggestion when using onscreen keyboard on Windows 11

Question

I need to turn off the onscreen keyboard suggestions on a Windows 11 Surface Pro.

In Windows 10 there is the option "Under Typing, turn on Show text suggestions as I type on the software keyboard. This enables text suggestions when you're typing on an on-screen keyboard."

But in Windows 11 the option instead reads "In the Typing menu, turn on the Show text suggestions when typing on the physical keyboard switch. This enables text suggestions when you're typing on a physical keyboard."

How do I turn off suggestions when using the ONSCREEN keyboard in Windows 11?

Thanks.

Hello

To disable text suggestions when using the onscreen keyboard in Windows 11, you can follow these steps:

Press the Windows + I keyboard shortcut to open the Settings app.

Click on the Time & language tab.

Navigate to the Typing section.

Click on the toggle button next to the Show text suggestions when typing on the physical keyboard option.

Please note that this will disable text suggestions for both physical and onscreen keyboards. If you only want to disable it for the onscreen keyboard, currently, there might not be a direct option available in Windows 11.
