Other layouts are, arguably, more useful when you consider the point of optimal movement. DVORAK, for example, is considered the most ergonomic layout since it requires less movement to get to the most commonly typed keys. If you feel like giving it a try, you can change the keyboard layout very easily from within the Language settings. You can even add multiple keyboards, in case you want to use DVORAK, for example, and your wife or child prefers QWERTY. Here are a few simple steps showing you how to change the keyboard layout in Windows 10.
- Click start (the Windows icon in the bottom left corner).
- Click the gear icon to open the Settings window.
- In the Settings window, select Time & Language.
- In the left panel, select Language.
- On the Language tab scroll down to Preferred languages.
- Select the language for which you are choosing a keyboard.
- In the menu that opens, click Options.
- Click Add a keyboard to see the options available.
- Select the keyboard from the dropdown list. The Keyboard will be now available from the Taskbar tray.
