In the language bar I have a "Dutch" language that I don't need and never use, hence I want to remove it. Here's a pictures of the language bar with the Dutch option:
The first thing I've tried is going to Control Panel > Time & Language > Region & Language
and looking for any Dutch languages installed, but there are none installed:
Next, I went to Control Panel\Clock, Language, and Region\Language
to see if there are any Dutch languages installed, but still no luck:
The only Dutch program I have installed is an Microsoft Office Dutch Language Pack. Does that have to do with it? Is there any possible way to remove this language from the language bar? Thanks.
Edit: when I click on settings
I also see just one language:
2@Ramhound Oh wow that actually did the trick. I added the language > installed the language (from Windows Update) > added the keyboards and then removed the keyboard + language and it's gone! Thank you very much. Is it possible to mark this comment as solution? Or do you have to submit a new answer? – jim – 2015-11-01T16:09:32.560

– Burgi – 2016-04-17T20:12:04.5301JimmyDG, @Ramhound, I have exactly the same problem. I tried following JimmyDG's suggestion, but I might have misunderstood the procedure. I clicked on the small "ENG" button near the bottom-right corner; "Language preferences" popped up, clicked on those; added Dutch; removed Dutch; checked the effect -- indeed Dutch was gone. But it only worked until I restarted Windows. Then Dutch was back in its place. How can I get rid of it permanently? The answer by xpy seems interesting, but I am afraid to experiment with the registry, and I do not quite understand what exactly I should do there. – Richard Hardy – 2016-07-09T14:10:28.887
@Ramhound, thanks for a quick response. Well, just for the record, it did not work for me. – Richard Hardy – 2016-07-09T14:47:29.497
