Adding additional keyboard layout for domain users

This is quick one, where I wanted to add additional keyboard layout to some users using GPO preferences. Using GPO preferences I have added following registry key to targeted domain users:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Keyboard Layout\Preload\
  • Value Name:2
  • Value type:REG_SZ
  • Value data:0000042f
42F is keyboard layout for Macedonian Language and 2 for value name is keyboard preference. Additional language codes can be found in following part of registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layouts.
