How to determine the writing language inside each program on Windows 10 without programs
Any operating system, whether Windows, Linux, Mac, and even mobile operating systems allow users to add more than one language to write texts within programs and applications, for example, the Arab user will not be able to rely on the default English language only to write, but also needs to add Arabic or French so that he can write Arabic texts, whether while chatting or when searching on the Internet... Etcetera. Users can add a new keyboard language when installing Windows or through quick settings.
But perhaps the problem you have with multilingualism is the need to convert the language (by pressing the Alt + Shift button) within each program depending on the language in which you want to write. For example, you want to write in Arabic inside Photoshop; In English, in Word, the language must be converted every time you use one of these programs. Fortunately, Microsoft has provided a solution to this problem, and we will highlight it through this article.
This new solution began to appear in Windows 10 after the April 2018 update, or specifically in version 1803 of Windows 10. This solution installs the primary language you used to write within a specific program, meaning if you always write in Arabic within program A while English is used to write in program B. The Arabic language will automatically be selected as soon as the program (A) is launched and used without the need to press Alt + Shift in order to select the Arabic language, it will be selected immediately. This means selecting the writing language within each program which is easy for you to use the computer.
To activate this method or use this solution, open Settings in Windows 10, whether through the Start menu and then click on the "gear" sign from the left icons, or by opening the Action Center menu or by pressing the Windows logo button + the letter i together. After the Settings window opens, go to the Device section and then from the side menu head to the Typing page. On this page, scroll to the bottom until you click on the Advanced keyboard settings option located under the More keyboard settings section.
On the Advanced keyboard settings page, you will find a set of settings related to the method of converting the input method, you can specify the primary language of writing within any program you open through the Override for default input method menu. But we are on this page specifically for another specific thing, which is to put a check mark next to the Let me use a different input method for each app window, which installs the writing language used within each program. After doing so, close Settings window, and you will notice the effect of this new option while using the computer.
To understand it more clearly now, open Notepad, select the Arabic writing language, start typing texts, open your web browser, Google Chrome, and write in it in second English. After that, reopen the Notepad window again and you will notice that the system has automatically selected the Arabic language because you used it to write inside the tool, and once you open the Google Chrome browser again, the language will be converted to English automatically as well. This is the idea of the new option in Windows 10, which some may find useful, especially those who master and use more than one language.
