MS you are so annoying...


This method is for older versions of Windows 10 - See the below answer by Anders_K for new versions.

When I do it in my Virtual Machine it is the same method as my Windows 8.1 machine.

Control panel location: Control Panel\Clock, Language and Region\Language\Advanced settings > Options > Hidden [Check]

Update: If the above does not work - Try the path Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Language and advanced options will be on the left.

I had a similar issue recently, this is what I did to get rid of the language bar & input indicator.

  1. open Start -> Settings -> Time & Language -> Additional date, time & regional settings -> Advanced Settings. There you have to uncheck Use the desktop language bar when it's available

  1. then go to Start -> Settings -> System -> Notifications & actions -> turn system icons on or off. There you have to switch Input Indicator to Off
