my Keyboard is German. As I change to Microsoft Pinyin, press key "z", but react as "y". In Window 8, I can use regedit to change KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layouts from kbdUS.dll to kbdGR.dll, but in Windows 10, it did not work.

Thanks but sorry, your suggestion doesn't work. I work in WINDOWS with German, there is an option for choose Keyboards of Deutsch QWERTZ for German, but no such option for MS Pinyin.

This was a helpful reply in general, very helpful for simplified Chinese pinyin input, but the question was actually to get a Traditional Chinese PINYIN input (I donwloaded the Taiwanese traditional mandarin, but it is a bopomofo keyboard, which I can't use)

So the question that remains is how can I install (or find) a  "traditional mandarin pinyin input'?

In reply to my own question...

After a bit more looking around I found out that under the simplified language pack, after installing the keyboard there is a choice of simplified or traditional character sets (so the name simplified language pack is a tad misleading)

Hope this helps anyone who had the same issues.

Thanking me for my help.

I'm welcome!

Hi Kryten,

Thank you for providing us the resolution.

Yes, you are right on your part that in Windows 10 you have to select between the tradition and simplified set of characters under the simplified language pack. Thank you for your contribution in providing a solution of the issue.

What you need to do is click on Options in 中文（中華人民共和國）after you have added the language.  Then click on Microsoft Pinyin, and click on its Options.  Then choose "Traditional Chinese" in the Character set.
