I'm using many languages on my PC, and if I want to move from one language to another, I have to click Shift+Alt for many times until I get the language that I want. Needless to say that it's not convenient at all to work in such a way.

Is there a way to make it shorter? For example, to definite some specific keys to change to a specific language by one action (rather than many, as in my case).

This is a common problem faced by people using multiple input languages in Windows PC and it's really cumbersome to switch between many languages pressing Shift+Alt. We can assign particular keys for particular languages and make this process easy.

  • Go to Control Panel.
  • Under Clock, Language and Region, Select Change input methods:

  • Go to Advanced Settings:

  • Click Change language bar hot keys:

  • Select a language and click Change Key Sequence:

  • From the menu that pops up, "Mark" the 'Enable key sequence' and select a key sequence from the dropdown menu. I am selecting Ctrl+1 combination for that particular language and press OK:

  • Click Apply and that particular hotkey combination will be set for the language that you selected:

Now, whenever you press Ctrl+1, you will switch directly to that input language.

That's it. I hope this helps. Do let me know how it does :)
