RightKeyboard

Automatically switch keyboard layout on different physical keyboard key press.

This code is based on the work published here: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/20994/Using-multiple-keyboards-with-different-layouts-on

Changes

• Removed "current layout cache", and used system call "Get Current Layout" as method prevent syscall overload, as it failed after sleep.
• Added "Clear" context menu, to clear current configuration.

Before use

Make sure all your keyboard layouts are set on different languages/locales on windows, as this app can only set layout by setting the system locale. I have here, for example:

• English (United States) locale set to have only US International layout.
• Portuguese (Brazil) set to have only Portuguese (Brazil ABNT) layout.

If you have multiple layouts on same locale it won't work.

How to use

1. Press WindowsKey + R
2. Type shell:startup and press Enter
3. Paste RightKeyboard.exe there
4. Open it
5. Press a key, chose a locale.
6. Everytime you login, it will start changing the layout automatically.
