My question is relatively simple.
The ultimate goal of it is to avoid this unwanted behavior: unwanted keyboards
if you check on the Internet or here on superuser.com you'll find long topics with bypassing solutions, approximate descriptions, outdated information, etc. For instance this one: Can't remove unneeded keyboard layouts - no such setting anywhere
So here's my setup
- I live in Metropolitan France.
- My keyboard has a Norwegian layout
- I want my system in English -> display language
- I want to use the metric system and European format for date: day/month/year, €/euro for money, etc.
- And above all, I only want ONE keyboard layout on Windows.
The question is
How to have a single keyboard layout on Windows despite having a complex language/location/locale setup
To answer some questions in advance
I don't want to change my keyboard, it's a gaming keyboard, I'm fine with it.
I don't want a French layout, I'm used to type accents with the Norwegian keyboard, the only character that I can't type with my keyboard is "le c cedille", and I'm fine without it ^^
I don't want to switch to Linux -> love Linux, but I need Windows on that PC :'(
