title: Keyboard Task - Enable or Disable a Keyboard
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Keyman keyboards can be enabled and disabled. When disabled, they are
|
|
removed from the list of keyboards you can select from, but they are
|
|
not uninstalled.
|
|
|
|
## Disabling a Keyman keyboard
|
|
|
|
Disabling a Keyman keyboard removes it from the Keyman menu and Keyman
|
|
Toolbox but does not uninstall the keyboard. This is useful if:
|
|
|
|
- You are using a single keyboard layout from a package with multiple
|
|
keyboards and you want to remove the extra keyboards from the Keyman
|
|
Toolbox and menu.
|
|
|
|
- You have a keyboard layout installed which you aren\'t currently
|
|
using but don\'t want to uninstall.
|
|
|
|
To disable a Keyman keyboard:
|
|
|
|
1. Open Keyman.
|
|
|
|
2. Click on the Keyman icon , on the
|
|
Windows Taskbar near the clock.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Select Configuration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Select the Keyboard Layouts tab.
|
|
|
|
5. Select the keyboard name you want to disable to expand options associated with it.
|
|
|
|
6. Click on the Disable button.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. Click OK.
|
|
|
|
When a keyboard layout is disabled, its name and details appear in grey and the disable
|
|
button now says enable. The Add/remove language... button is also disabled as this option is
|
|
not available while the keyboard is disabled.
|
