Wrong keyboard layout at login screen
Try add the UK keyboard and remove it.
We also have similar issues, but until now, on the VMs only.
We have de-CH (default) and en-US keyboard layout active on the logon screen.
After installing KB5011487 on 20H2 it takes two reboots and the de-CH keyboard layout will not be available anymore. Here the chornological summary:
- Install of KB5011487
- Reboot
- de-CH layout still active, but no choise for keyboard layout selection at bottom right of logon screen
- Reboot
- en-US layout only active, no choise for keyboard layout selection at bottom right of logon screen
- no keyboard layout preload keys in registry: Computer\HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Keyboard Layout\Preload
Trying to put in a registry key within Computer\HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Keyboard Layout\Preload will only work until next login without rebooting. When rebooting, the keyboard layout will be en-US again.
This scenario we were able to reproduce on all VMs with win 10 enterprise 20H2 SAC.
- Thank you for sharing this.
Make sure share these issues using the Feedback Hub app and report this issue.- We now also have physical machines where users report that only en-US is available. We have no Feedback Hub and find this is a good place to find out if any other other customers face the same problems with the monthly update. It is a good channel to communicate with other affected customers, instead of a bilateral channel.
- Feedback Hub is available in the Windows 10 and Windows 11 devices.
You may find a device where you have access to the Feedback Hub app and report this issue and then attach log files and screenshots.
