Language keyboard display

I understand that you can switch languages using the Windows key+spacebar. But this only changes the language input. It is useless unless you can also display the language keyboard onscreen.

Also, I know you can change the keyboard layout via clicking on the language on the bottom right corner of the screen. But I'm seeking a method that both changes the language input AND displays that language keyboard onscreen. At the same time. This is how it works on mobile and I'd like to find a way to do the same on desktop.

Is there any way to create a shortcut to do this? Or some other method?

    I am sorry this did not answer your question. Can you I really want to assist you with this problem. Did the Links not answer how to change the keyboard and the language for the computer?

    Can you give me details as to why this did not help?

    Best Wishes,

    Cindy

    Hi R,

    My name is Cindy. I am sorry you are having this problem. I know it is really frustrating. I will do my best to help you with this problem.

    Not all computers have this feature. It will depend on if you version of Windows came with a single language or multiple languages.

    This can be found by typing Language in the search and open the page. If you have the multi-language version installed, you will be able to add an additional language here and add the keyboard settings.

    I have attached links below with more information on how this works.
