sys7em Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Hello all,I'm using nlite on XP Pro x86, to get rid of some unnecessary software and also unwanted language packs. Now I cannot get the language bar to show. In "Regional and Language options->languages->Details" the Language Bar button is simply unclickable? why is that ? What have I done wrong. Now I can only switch between languages with key combination but that way it is confusing and I want the language bar indicator on the taskbar to show up again.Thank you very much for your responses!

bravosix Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Maybe u can try this:1. 1st method:Open Regedit. Browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\CTF\LangBarThe setting shold be like this:1) ExtraIconsOnMinimized = 12) Label = 13) ShowStatus = 44) Transparency= ff2. Second method: Write these code below and save it with LBfix.reg and open it:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{540D8A8B-1C3F-4E32-8132-530F6A502090}]@="Language bar""MenuTextPUI"="@%SystemRoot%\\System32\\msutb.dll,-325"[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{540D8A8B-1C3F-4E32-8132-530F6A502090}\Implemented Categories][HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{540D8A8B-1C3F-4E32-8132-530F6A502090}\Implemented Categories\{00021492-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}][HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{540D8A8B-1C3F-4E32-8132-530F6A502090}\InProcServer32]@="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\msutb.dll""ThreadingModel"="Apartment"[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]"NoSaveSettings"=dword:00000000[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\CTF\LangBar]"ShowStatus"=dword:00000004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sys7em Posted February 16, 2010 Author Share Posted February 16, 2010 Thanks for your reply bravosix.Apparently I tried your methods and none of them seemed to work.Still the language bar button stays unclickable as it first was so I cannot get any kind of language bar on the taskbar.Do you have any other Ideas I might try?Regards.

johnhc Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 sys7em, What have I done wrong.We have no idea since you did not attach your Last Session as is requested in RED at the top. You have probably removed something that will kill the Language Bar. Enjoy, John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sys7em Posted February 16, 2010 Author Share Posted February 16, 2010 (edited) oh just missed that thing, as it is really essential as you mentioned.Please note the attached last session .ini file to this post.Hope it helps to solve the mystery of my language bar.Please note that I have removed a large chunk of the software and languages from the original xp installation ...Regards.Last Session.ini Edited February 16, 2010 by sys7em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooms Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 i think you have removed to much with nLite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnhc Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 sys7em, please see my attached screen shot. So, removing Text Services Framework is definitely a problem, perhaps not the only one. Try a run (starting with a fresh copy of your CD) with it included and see if that fixes your problem and let us know. The tweak "Explorer-Launch folder windows in a separate process" exposes a Windows bug and you may want to remove it. Enjoy, John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bravosix Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Make startup key in the registry to autorun ctfmon.exe.It should make your language bar seen on the taskbar.Hope it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
