I have both Hebrew and English installed on my computer. I usually can switch back and forth normally. However, whenever I sleep the laptop, when I reopen it, I cannot switch between languages, and can only input in English until I reset the machine.
This has been going on since I updated Windows 10 to its newest version (it's currently version 1903). (I had been avoiding it to keep epub functionality in Edge.) It's also possible that it happened because I added an additional user account, where before I was the only user.
This happens even if I set Hebrew as my default language (after I sleep it), it still only can type in English.
Although settings says both English and Hebrew are installed, and pressing alt-shift is enabled to switch between them, this again only works until I sleep. Even if I set hotkeys, the hotkeys settings disappear after I sleep. So does the language bar.
Since I must type in both Hebrew and English, I essentially have no sleep function, as Hebrew will not work at all after I sleep, even if I select it from the settings.

What edition of Windows do you have installed? What language is that edition? Have you tried to reinstall the language that was added? – Ramhound – 2019-09-24T12:06:39.620
@Ramhound english. Windows 10 fully updated. Yes. – TheAsh – 2019-09-24T12:47:35.610
Be specific “fully updated” isn’t specific enough. I also asked if you uninstalled the Hebrew language pack. I also asked for which edition your running’s. Instead of a comment add this critical information to your question. There are more than 5 “current” versions of Windows (1507,1511,1607,1703,1709,1803,1809,1903). So please be specific when providing details. – Ramhound – 2019-09-24T13:02:03.650
@Ramhound I did reinstall and uninstall. WIndows 10 pro. Not sure how to find out the exact number. – TheAsh – 2019-09-24T21:03:09.090
Tell us the last cumulative update that was installed or use winver – Ramhound – 2019-09-25T07:35:42.397
@Ramhound version 1903 – TheAsh – 2019-09-25T10:47:22.483
So have you tried reinstalling the language pack, one of the many problems I have seen, is language packs and feature updates. Reinstalling them almost always works – Ramhound – 2019-09-25T12:21:41.730
@Ramhound Tried it. It doesn't help. Whenever I sleep from one username and switch to the other, I can't type in Hebrew till I restart. – TheAsh – 2019-09-26T20:40:25.103
