Describe the feature or improvement

By default, Windows adds keyboard layouts to your device that are present on other devices on networks you connect to. This results in phantom keyboard layouts that aren't listed in your keyboard layouts in settings and thus, are annoying to remove. Generally you have to find and add the keyboard manually before you can remove it but I've also had success removing arbitrary values from in here and then restarting the device.

Some of the language identifiers are documented here but some of them aren't.

Examples

The registry key to prevent these keyboard layouts from being added is:

Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout" -Name "IgnoreRemoteKeyboardLayout" -Value 1

Heya,

Thanks for suggesting this. I wasn't even aware of this functionality, this does seem like something we can incorporate into the script.
