Define Your Own Hotkey to Switch Languages in Windows 10
How to Change Keyword Sequence for Input Languages
If you’re writing in two or languages and have to switch the language all the time, Windows has a shortcut for it: SHIFT+ALT.
As stupid as Microsoft is, that shortcut is already being used on Office programs for something else. So, every time you press it, some weird numbers appear in your Word, PowerPoint or whatever Office program.
It’s just dumb. Super dumb.
There is a solution for this dilemma. Just change the shortcut to be something else. Luckily if you go to “advanced settings”, you can change the language bar hot keys:
Great? Not great. Because that feature was only available for Windows 7 and 8. And in Windows 10. It’s nowhere to find.
Anyways. As Windows 10 still has everything the other Windows versions have, you can still access it. Just type this into your console (cmd) – or click the Windows button and go to “Run”. Put this in:
Now click “Change Key Squence”, and select “Ctrl + Shift”. That will make more sense as it won’t mess up everything.

1Norton Security Antivirus
5.0
from $34.99
Norton Antivirus is one of our review winners in 2024. No other antivirus software offers such impressive virus protection in the market right now. This may change in the future as the market is constantly changing.
In 2024 AVG began offering unlimited install features for their antivirus software. For everyone, but especially families, this is one of the best bargains of the year. The interface couldn't be any easier to use, and the malware protection is solid.
One of the advantages of Avast 2024 is not just it's reliability and broad antivirus protection but also the price. At only $34.68, it's one of the most affordable deals you can find among reputable antivirus tools.
Panda is not only the cheapest, but is actually one of a kind: They invented the first artificial intelligent virus protection in the world that recognizes unknown viruses. It works so well that they became extremely popular in Europe, and are being praised by hackers.
With over 400 million users, over 20 years of experience, and 270,000 corporate clients, Kaspersky Lab technologies is a strong cybersecurity company. This company offers an array of powerful products such as Kaspersky Total Security, Kaspersky Anti-Virus, Kaspersky Internet Security and more.
McAfee has been around for more than 30 years, making them one of the oldest virus protection companies on the market. Due to restructuring of the company over the last years, the company has successfully created a new product fit to satisfy customers in 2024.
AVIRA Antivirus is one of the most popular virus protection software. They've been famous for years for their free antivirus offering. The paid version is as good as the free version but without ads. For only $0.99, they make switching to the professional version worth it. However, support is not Avira's forte.
