Language Bar - Never Die's!

[Saurabh Nandu]

Hi,

I have installed a fresh copy of Vista Beta2 on my Toshiba M200 tablet PC.
During installation I selected India as my country and language as English.
The installation went fine but now I see a Language Bar. This was never the
case in Windows XP.

Ok, so I felt the defaults had changed so I right clicked the status bar and
from the context menu Toolbars i unchecked the Language Bar. This makes the
language bar dissappear. But then when I hover my mouse over some icons,
especially the Power icon the language bar comes back from the dead? Why,
Why Why?

No matter how many times I have tried to Hide it it comes back again. The
only way to send it packing is to disable it from the Regional Settings. But
I think this will be painful for everyone who installs Windows Vista outside
of US if the Language Bar shows up by default.

Try this if you haven't already )
Start > Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Keyboards and
Languages tab > Click "settings" > Language Bar tab > "Hidden".

Apply, OK, then Apply then OK again. Hopefully that should fix it )

Zack,

that does work and I have described it in my post too. But its funny if
everyone has to go these to hide this pesky bar. Shoudn't this bug be fixed?

I'm sure that once you right click on the Language bar in the taskbar, click
Close then you've got the option to never show it again though?
