How to set up the keyboard layout.

Hi there,
I have got a Sony Vaio, with Vista Business Edition running on; I set
up the Swiss (French) keyboard layout under control panel,
international options. It seems to be working, but every time I open a
different application (windows mail, micorsoft explorer, etc) the
keyboard layout automatically switches back to the default one
(Italian) which is incorrect.

Is there any way I can fix it for all the applications?

Regards,
D,

Hi D,

You need to set the Swiss (French) language as your default (See screenshot under step 7). See step 10 in this tutorial for how.

Hi,

In Control Panel | Regional Options | Languages and keyboards | Edit
keyboards | set the default and delete all keyboards layout except Swiss.
