How to remove keyboard layouts in Windows 10

I've looked and tried other posts but they didn't work for me.

The languages I use on my computer are English (United States) and Spanish (Uruguay). The Keyboard layout of the computer is Latin American.

How can I set things up so I only have English (United States) - United States International Keyboard and Spanish Uruguay - Latin American Keyboard and delete the rest?

Thanks in advance.

Hi H2001,
I'm Rodrigo and I will help you.
To set the input languages that show on the input language list, go to Settings > time & Language > Language > Select the language > Options > and under Keyboards, select and remove the unwanted keyboards.
If I helped you anyway, It makes me happy.

Hi Rodrigo

Your suggestion unfortunately didn´t work. I'm not shown the Spanish Mexico or Spanish Spain keyboards/language as options. They seem to appear in the taskbar but not as options in the Language menus.

Thanks in advance.

Press Winkey + R type regedit and press Enter to open the registry editor.
On the Registry Editor, go to the following keys (you can copy and paste on the address bar)

On each one of these keys, on the right side of the window, delete the values below that indicates the keyboards that you want to remove.
