HKCU\Keyboard Layout\Substitutes
Data type | Range | Default value |
---|---|---|
REG_SZ | Keyboard layout code | Keyboard layout code |
Represents a keyboard layout.
These entries associate a standard layout with a preferred alternative. They have the following format:
Keyboard layout code (standard) REG_SZ Keyboard layout code (preferred alternative)
For example,
00000409 REG_SZ 00010409
indicates that each time the 00000409 (U.S. English) keyboard layout is called, the system should substitute the preferred alternative, the 00010409 (Dvorak U.S. English) keyboard layout.
To change the keyboard layout, double-click Keyboard in Control Panel. Click the Input Locales tab, and then click the Add button in the Installed input locales box.
Note
The <Keyboard layout code> entry is a variable representing the entries in the Substitutes subkey under the HKCU\Keyboard Layout key. It does not actually appear in the registry. This variable entry displays information which is common to the entries in the Substitutes subkey.
