Bulid issues

Name already exists

If you find an error with your layout that you wish to change, you need to:

  1. Uninstall the layout
  • Through Add/Remove Programs or through the original installer (if still available)
  1. Make the change and re-build the layout
  2. Install the updated layout
  3. Reboot (maybe just sign out and log back in)

If, in step 2., the build fails with an error similar to "name-of-layout already exists", it proabably means that the layout was not completely removed from your system when it was uninstalled. The MS-forums provided some help with this, for once. Open the registry editor and look for something similar to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Control\Keyboard Layouts

Your layout file is likely among the last ones under Keyboard Layouts. Remove it once you find it, reboot, and try again.
