I reinstall Windows relatively frequent.
Is there a way to backup the Input Language hot keys, and restore them automatically ?
Plus if I can add these keyboards back automatically, that would be even better.

These are the hotkeys I'm using:

So after some testing I found out :

Import the backup .reg file of

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Keyboard Layout]

After reboot, the Keyboard layouts will be added.
(thus Win + Space) can switch to and use them.

Import the backup of

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Input Method] ; or maybe only need :
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Input Method\Hot Keys]  

After reboot, the hotkeys start working.

Import the backup of

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International] ; or maybe just :
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International\User Profile]

Then after reboot, those different language and keyboards would be properly added into the system, and show up in Settings -> Lanuage.

If you have some input methods are added by 3-rd party installers, better install those first.
(For example the Google Japanese Input in my list)

I just backup the 3 main keys, and tried to import them back with different combinations.
All 3 combined worked well for me.
