Solve : How to get active keyboard layout in command line??

Answer» <html><body><p>Hi!<br/><br/>I found over the net that in Windows 7 was possible in command line to get active <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/keyboard-532411" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about KEYBOARD">KEYBOARD</a> layout.<br/>By this Registry reading:<br/><br/>reg query "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Keyboard Layout\Preload"<br/><br/>It displays installed layouts (not languages) in system, active will contain number 1.<br/>I used it and tried - no change of value. For to be sure I was searching for ID list - yes, found, but I have own layouts created with KbdEdit. These cannot to have any common ID, so I think I need only one simple thing - <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/read-619994" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about READ">READ</a> only active keyboard indication instead list with values without change - value I'll get I will take as important.<br/><br/>How to fix it?
