How to get german QWERTY on Windows?
Well I'm used to having the world standard keyboard which is qwerty and not qwertz
... But on windows I can't find the choice for german input which would be qwerty, not qwertz
. In linux there was german input with qwerty so it was fun. I believe it should be on Windows too? Cause i'm sick of this qwertz always having to correct and search for z or y...
Yeah, I know, if Germans made a mistake, it wasn't loosing WW2...
Edit: Maybe I wasn't clear enough, it's not about changing between different language inputs? It's about having all german keys in german input, just the z and y would be in the correct places like all the worlds keyboards use and like the US keyboard uses...
What I usually do is to customise keyboard layouts to my liking: adding characters I use frequently for example.
On Windows it is really simple. Just install Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator, load the existing keyboard you want to modify, then make the changes you want and produce a new keyboard layout.
Just install KbdKaz 500 in German layout edition. During installation you can choose QWERTY keys layout.
Thanks for the answers that have been given, but unfortunately by searching everywhere and waiting for answers I couldn't find what I needed, so I came up with this solution - I used The The Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator
And created my own very custom layout by modifying the default german layout and switching places of z and y.
In case somebody needs it and doesn't want to go the hard way, I decided to upload them, so here are the links to download and install the keyboard layout:
Edit: updated links.

It will appear as a choice under German input between languages in your language bar. If you just want to use this german layout, just remove all german layouts and install this one. Good luck and have fun using it!
