After installing Office 2003 (unattended or attended), the language bar is turned on by default.

Does anyone know where it is in the registry that you can disable this by default for any new user that signs on? I would like to have it imported during setup.

Hi

Did you ever find out how to do this? im trying to do the same thing?!

Thanks

Oli

I think you can

HKEY_USERS\S-1-X-XX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXX-XXXX\Software\Microsoft\CTF\LangBar : ShowStatus

and

REG_DWORD to 0x00000000 (0) for language bar showed on screen.

REG_DWORD to 0x00000004 (4) for language bar in start menu bar.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\CTF\LangBar : ShowStatus

and

REG_DWORD to 0x00000000 (0) for language bar showed on screen.

REG_DWORD to 0x00000004 (4) for language bar in start menu bar.

This is only for the current user but I think if I remember about how to implement stuffs for eery user, copy the NTUSER.DAT to the new users place.

I hope this helps.

[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{540D8A8B-1C3F-4E32-8132-530F6A502090}]"MenuTextPUI"="@%SystemRoot%\\System32\\msutb.dll,-325"

[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{540D8A8B-1C3F-4E32-8132-530F6A502090}]

"MenuTextPUI"="@%SystemRoot%\\System32\\msutb.dll,-325"

This reg is wrong... you can't switch language.

don't install the alternative user imput together with office and problem will be solved.

I dont have Office 03. I test the registr under vmware and switch language option dont work.

All you need to do is neutralise

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\ctfmon.exe

A .reg file with a "-" (dash) value for relevant key can do it.

yeah

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"CTFMON.EXE"=-

I have tried this and it's true that the key above will remove the language bar. I can't get it to work unattended though using my tweaks.reg file called from start.cmd.

All the other tweaks work except this one. If I run it after the first login, however, it does remove the entry. Is the ctfmon.exe getting put into the registry after when start.cmd is running?

Any help is appreciated.
