Cannot remove Microsoft bopomofo input method

Question

Hi, I have recently reinstalled my Windows system and I find that I have the Microsoft bopomofo input method which I neither chose it when installing Windows nor added after installing Windows.

Then I tried to remove it in the language setting but in the keyboard section the Microsoft bopomofo does not appear and I cannot remove it.

Is there any other method to remove the Microsoft bopomofo from the input options?

Many thanks.

Please try this if it helps.

After that, copy and paste the command below then hit Enter:

Set-WinUserLanguageList $UserLanguage

Press Y then Exit PowerShell

Restart your computer

After restart, English (United States) will be the only language under Preferred Languages. Kindly add other languages again.
