In Windows XP, Vista, 7 whenever one was using sevaral input languages, switching between applications would default input language for an application to defalut language.
For example when I have opened MS Word and switched input to type in Russian, switching to Command Prompt application would automatically set the input language to English (default). When I was going back to MS Word, language automatically was turning back to Russian as I left off.
So it was like a per-application input setting.
In Windows 8 an input language switch affects an enitre OS input. So if I want to type in a command in CMD, I have to manually switch to English.
How can I have Windows 8 to behave the way Windows 7 did with respect to input language switching?
1Thank you very much! This extremely useful for login from locking screen (usually we don't see in language indicator while typing password, right?). – Xeningem – 2014-12-16T12:43:19.273
7This works for Windows 10, too. – famzah – 2016-05-26T18:28:40.137
