Hi!
I have set my keyboard layout to a "qwerty" mode in my account but at the login screen, it is in azerty mode (Francais france: the default for this version of windows). Is there a way to set it to a qwerty layout (in that case, french canada) effective at the login screen?
(config file to set or else)

Thx!

Do you have the Fr logo sitting in the taskbar ? If yes, go into properties, it corresponds to Regional Settings in control panel, there what keyboard layout do you have ? Fr, Fr-canadian ? From there, add the right keyboard and del the Fr (which is mine actually ;) )
But I think this is an option you set during install...
Hope this helps you... ;)
 
As far as I know you would have to change this in the registry under

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Keyboard Layout\Preload

Change the value for 1 to the same value you have at

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Keyboard Layout\Preload

Should be 00000c0c for French (Canada) but better look what you've got there.

It works! thanks!


Howling Wolf, the problem was before I could login, so the taskbar wasn't there yet, thanks anyway!

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
