Language bar dissapears #171

I'm not sure if it's related with using Win10-Initial-Setup-Script but Language bar dissapears and also (Left Alt + Shift) doesn't work to switch Keyboard Layout. I found solution in comments here:

Set-WinLanguageBarOption -UseLegacySwitchMode

Did you use the default preset or a custom one? In the default, there are few things related to the notification area, but none of them touches the language bar. Apart from that, there is AddENKeyboard which adds a layout. If you could give me your preset or steps how to replicate the problem, I might be able to help a bit more.

Also, just to clear a possible issue - if you've applied recent version of the script, run powershell as admin and execute following command

Set-Service "CDPUserSvc" -StartupType Automatic

and then reboot. I haven't been able to replicate the problem you're describing but this fixes few other desktop-related ones (#170, #172), so maybe it will help even in this case.

I did use default preset and only make taskbar height bigger to see Date and Time. I have Win 10 Pro Lenovo OEM in English with Czech and US keyboard layout.

After yesterday Windows Update Keyboard Layout dissapears again and neither one of the previous commands works. Edit Settings - Time and Language have no effect.

//edit: Today after another Windows Update and restart appear Language bar and Keyboard icon in systray with the same function. I'm confused and I hope that it will not dissapear after next restart...
