Hi,

There are 3 options:

However, the docked option is greyed out. How can I get it docked in taskbar?

Thanks

    Finally I got solve this problem. You must check for the "Use the Desktop language bar when it's available" in the first time after that you must make sure you have checked the language bar is floating on the desktop. When you change the language to English and uncheck the "Use the Desktop language bar when it's available" then the language bar will get docked on the taskbar automatically.

    Thanks : )

    I had the same problem, now it is solved.

    1. Go to your languages in settings.
    2. Click on the ... after any language.
    3. Choose language options
    4. Install keyboard, add the keyboard layout you want

    This will fix both the language shift by keys AND the docking the languages in the taskbar.
