Windows 10 keeps changing keyboard input method after unlocking

Hi, recently, my laptop have beginning to change the keyboard input method after unlocking the laptop. I have only one input method (US- International), but the systems keep changing it to US. I remove US from the configuration, leaving only US-International as the only input method. I also configured the overwrite to US-International (just in case). Still, after unlocking the laptop, the system changes the input method to US. I also remove any shortcut to change between languages, like Ctrl+Shift. All of that is disabled, space bar and all... disabled. I have seen on the forums that people have problems like this, but they have more than one input method configured. That is not my case. As the image shows, only one input method and still changes, even when its not even configured. I don't know if this is caused by an update or something like that, but is the first time and I have been using this laptop for a long time.

    Thank you Radney, for your response. I'm sorry to say that is not the case, as the Location have been off since the day we configured the laptop, a few years ago. Do you have any other thoughts on the matter?

    Hi Omar,

    Let's take care of your concern. It's possible that Windows is changing the keyboard input based on your regional location/settings. Try disabling the Location service and see if it helps. You can do this by going to SettingsPrivacy > Location > Toggle the Location service Off.

    Looking forward to your response.
