Windows 11 language switch hot keys don't always work or work slowly.
Microsoft has messed up language switching hot keys since Windows 10, when hotkeys Ctrl+digit to switch to specific language stopped working. Now I'm trying to just use alt+shift to switch languages...
I've been trying different keys: win+space, ctrl+shift, alt+shift. Non of those work properly. Alt+shift is conflicting with just alt and sometimes instead of language switching it changes focus to menu and when I start typing immediately after that - all kinds of random crap is happening on my PC depending on which button I press. Ctrl+shift and win+space both open UI pop-up above the tray if held for a second or two. But I don't want to hold it. I just want to switch it quickly and that's it. But then it would quickly switch to second language and back to first one in a blink of an eye within single press of those buttons. I just notice quick blinking of languages.
It's not reproducable every time though for some reason.
