The question "How do I remove a keyboard from a window?" is ambiguous. It could refer to either removing a language keyboard layout from Windows, or physically removing a keyboard stuck to a window. Assuming the question is referring to removing a language keyboard from Windows, here's how to do it:
Removing a Language Keyboard Layout in Windows
If you want to remove a specific language keyboard layout from your Windows operating system, follow these steps:
- Open Settings: Click the Start button, then select Settings.
- Navigate to Language Settings: In the Settings app, go to Time & language and then Language & region.
- Find the Language: Locate the language that contains the keyboard layout you want to remove.
- Remove the Keyboard:
- Select More (usually represented by three dots).
- Choose Remove. This will remove the selected language and all associated keyboard layouts. If you want to keep the language but remove a specific keyboard layout within that language, you'll need to manage the language options.
Example: Step-by-Step
Let's say you have both English (United States) and Spanish (Spain) installed, and you want to remove the Spanish keyboard layout.
- Go to Start > Settings > Time & language > Language & region.
- Find "Spanish (Spain)" in the list.
- Click the More option next to "Spanish (Spain)".
- Select Remove.
Removing a Keyboard Stuck to a Window (Literal Interpretation)
If, by some chance, you are asking how to physically remove a keyboard that's stuck to a window (e.g., with adhesive):
- Assess the Adhesive: Determine what type of adhesive is holding the keyboard to the window.
- Try Gentle Removal: First, try gently prying the keyboard off.
- Use a Solvent (with caution): If it's stuck, use a solvent like Goo Gone or WD-40. Apply the solvent to the adhesive only, being careful not to damage the window or the keyboard further. Let it sit for a few minutes, then try again.
- Scrape Carefully: Use a plastic scraper (like a credit card) to gently scrape away any remaining adhesive residue.
- Clean the Window: Clean the window with window cleaner.
