language settings don’t work

[hajduk]

For many years I have used MS Word; currently I have Office Professional 2013. I have installed fonts for a number of languages, some of which use non-Latin alphabets. In ‘Region & Language’ in the control panel, I have added the appropriate keyboards; in a couple of cases, I have downloaded third-party keyboards. Usually no problem—I set the language bar for the one I want to use, switch to an appropriate font if necessary, and everything goes smoothly. Not long ago Word encountered some sort of glitch and I had to reboot to get it back. I discovered that some of the languages I had added in ‘Region & Language’ had been deleted. I added them back. Now Word refuses to recognize the non-Latin keyboards. I can type only in the Latin alphabet. I try to reinstall, using the same procedure as always, and it does no good. What is wrong? I didn’t make any changes that I am aware of that would interfere with non-Roman keyboards.

Apparently there have been two replies. I seem unable to access them. Nothing I click on makes them visible. I don’t get it.

I only see your reply, where are you seeing that there are two other replies?
You may need to post a screen shot so we can this information?

Probably the two replies were spammers whose posts have been removed.

Before you follow any directions in a forum, check how many posts the person who replied has and when he/she joined.

Sometimes spammers post links to sites that either cost you $$$ or try to load malware on your computer.
Long time volunteers here will try to help without costing you money or if something does, you will be told in the post.

It was a gift.
