Language Bar

I used to be able to select from several languages
(English, French, German,) for keyboard input with
a little En, Fr, De icon selectable in my lower
taskbar. That seems to have gone away, following our
extensive effort in modifying services. I did all
switching by double- clicking on the icon, to get
the various language abbreviations to appear as a
menu.

I tried StartControl PanelRegional and Languages
but that sets hot key selection and I like the taskbar.
"Help" doesn't seem to lead me there either......

Did you click the language bar button in regional/languages details?

Problem is, UNk, that the Languages Bar is grayed out
and therefore I can't select it. I went back and restored
one of my old clones, and there the bar is a selectable
option, and the toolbar indicator/selector is present.
I think I have to reactivate one of the "services" that
John had me disable. But which one??

Not sure if this will help:

If it doesn't restore the bar you're looking for then check to see if
it's something related to your keyboard?

Clone system recalled, is working perfectly. Same keyboard.
On master system, recently repaired the hibernate function, now
it doesn't seem to know there are other languages available.

First, click Start Run, type the following and click OK:
msconfig

Click the Startup tab and make sure ctfmon is listed there and is
check-marked....if it is not check-marked, check it, click OK and
restart.

Then go to Control Panel Regional and Language Options Languages tab
Details button Advanced tab:
Remove the check-mark from "Turn Off Advanced Text Services"
Click OK all the way out.

Then go back and see if the Language Bar button is still greyed out at
Regional and Language Options Languages tab Details button Settings
tab

Okay, Glee.......ctfmon is *not* listed in the Startup list,
so I can't proceed past Square-One. There are three items in
the list, with nothing in the column where 'ctfmon' should
be, all are checked, and all read
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Run
but I know no more about them.

BTW....ctfmon is not shown in my Task Manager.

What next?

Glen, I figured it wouldn't hurt if I removed the check mark
from "turn Off Advanced Text Services" so I did so, and
backed out, and Kanguage Bar button isn't grayed out, so I
clicked it and backed out all the way, and now the "EN" is back
in my lower toolbar.

I'll reboot and check that everything is working right, and
thank you so much. You guys are *great*.
