How do I set only keyboard layout/language in Windows 10?
I wanna be able to change only the keyboard language. But it does also end up changing the Apps & Website.
I tried this.
Set-WinUserLanguageList da-DK,en-US -Force
Set-Culture da-DK # Region?
Set-WinSystemLocale -SystemLocale da-DK
Set-WinUILanguageOverride -Language en-US # Changed language in windows
Set-WinHomeLocation -GeoId 61
# https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/intl/table-of-geographical-locations
But the Apps and Websites is changed to da-DK too.
It seems to follow the priority of the WinUserLanguageList. But that is also the only direct way of setting the keyboard language I have found.
So is there a command to only set the keyboard language?
Or a command to only set the Apps and Websites language?
If you add another Language in the Time and Language settings, you can press the Windows Key + Space Bar to quickly change your keyboard layout and only the keyboard layout.
This is how the menu looks in German on Windows 11 but Windows 10 should be similar. Just press the colored button to add your language, wait for it to install but don't switch to it / switch back to your usual main language after and then Windows + Space should work.

This should also add a keyboard layout switcher indicator to your taskbar.

I work at a Japanese company and we all use Windows 10. I am used to using keybinds after rightclicking for a pop up Context Menu. At home, my PC does not show any keybind options when I do the same thing.
The Japanese image below in not mine, but an example for reference. You can see that "Eject" (取り出し) has a keybind marked as (J).
Is there any option to add this feature to my PC? I have searched everywhere to no avail.

Thank you in advanced.
They are there but hidden by default when you use the mouse. If you open the context menu with the keyboard (the context menu key or Shift+F10) then they should be underlined.
Starting with Windows 2000, keyboard indicators such as underlined accelerators and focus rectangles (collectively known as “keyboard cues”) are hidden by default, and are revealed only when you start using the keyboard. You can control this behavior from the Desktop Control Panel, under Appearance, Effects, “Hide underlined letters for keyboard navigation until I press the Alt key”.
I'm having problem using one of the shortcuts in VS Code ctrl + shift + L but it works from selection menu.
I have noticed there is a loading circle above cursor when I press that shortcut (even in other apps) and I assumed maybe it's a different shortcut for windows which overrides it.
is there any app that would show me what is triggered when I use shortcuts in windows 10?
VS code developer shortcut troubleshooting doesn't recognize any shortcut but it does for ctrl + shift + S(workbench.action.files.saveAs) for example.
AMD Radeon software was interfering with the shortcut on the background.
disabled it on "hotkeys" section.
It didn't solve every shortcut malfunction, it resolved after I updated the graphic driver.
I have recently moved from Windows 10 to MacOS Big Sur. On Windows, I used AutoHotkey for system-wide automatic text replacement. For example:
(alpha) would turn into α
(beta) would turn into β
Is it possible to do a similar thing using Automator on Mac? I'm not interested in app-specific settings, as I would like this to work in all apps. Not being familiar with the OS, I am struggling to figure it out, and Google/Apple Documentation have been no help!
Thanks
Go to System Preferences > Keyboard > Text and add your substitutions, as show in the image further below.
You can get to System Preferences from the Apple menu, far left of the menu bar, or from Spotlight pressing the commandspace bar keyboard shortcut and start typing System Preferences, or from the Dock clicking on the System Preferences icon, as shown below.
I am using MacBook Pro , macOS Mojave (10.14.4) . I am not able to toggle between windows of same application .
I tried Command + BackTick but its not working . Tried to change shortcut for "Move focus to next window" , but no luck .
Thanks
Another approach to bring up minimized windows without using 3rd-party app is to use Ctrl + Down (Mission Control's Application windows)
I feel Command + ` should be fixed, it should show minimized windows too. Or yellow traffic light button should default to hidden instead of minimized, so Command + ` can show all windows of same app
Note: Control + Down also works even if all of the windows of an application are minimized
I now disabled Command + ` on my machine. It's confusing to have two shortcuts for basically achieving the same thing.
I think the other windows of your same application are minimized.
Sadly, there's no keyboard shortcut that can show windows of same application if those windows are minimized. Command + Backtick only works on visible windows.
You can bring up the other minimized windows by right clicking the app's icon on the dock, then select the minimized window
UPDATE April 20 2019
Found an application that can bring up minimized windows of same application. App is HyperSwitch. You still need to do command + tab, then wait a second, a preview of all windows of same application will be shown. Then you can press command + backtick to switch to all windows of same application, even the minimized ones.
Found it on https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/2718/best-app-to-switch-between-all-open-windows
Another good option: AltTab
Use option+tab to toggle/switch among applications
To toggle/switch among windows of same application, use: option+`
You can change the option to command on AltTab, doing that, AltTab will override the default command+tab app switcher of macOS

If you turn on "Active Corners" you can make windows of same application pop up if you pull your mouse to the far corner you have activated and assigned to "program windows".....
Sorry for the messy terminology, my system language is set to danish, so the english terms I use here are just guesses.
I came here because I had a similar problem, maybe it helps someone in the future.
For me, it was fixed by reassigning the shortcut for "Move focus to next window" (to the same key combination as before). Not sure why, but it worked for me.
Is there a keyboard shortcut for OSX Mavericks to show all windows, even the minimized or hidden ones for an application?
I hate having to use my mouse to click on the Chrome icon to open my other chrome windows.
The keyboard shortcut to show all windows for an application is Ctrl+Down then switch between these windows using arrow keys.
To change the keys used for the shortcut to whatever you want, go to System Preferences-> Keyboard-> Shortcuts-> Mission Control-> Application Windows.
It's under the system preferences for Mission Control: there's a shortcut defined there for "Application windows", currently set to ctrl + down arrow
Works for open and minimised windows for your currently chosen application.
Ctrl + ▲ (up arrow) works on my Mac
You can setup a "hot corner" and select "Application Windows". Also you would see the file history in a banner so that you could also access to your files that are minimised.
