Windows 7: Using the Dvorak Keyboard Layout

Do you want to use the Dvorak keyboard layout instead of the traditional QWERTY layout? Here is how switch between the two keyboard layouts:
  • From the Start menu click Control Panel.
  • In the Control Panel folder click the Clock, Language, and Region link
  • Click the Region and Language control panel
  • Click the Keyboards and Languages tab.
  • Click the Change Keyboard... button
  • On the General tab, press the Add button.
  • Scroll down to English (United States), expand it then check the box for United States - Dvorak.
  • Press OK buttons close the dialog boxes.
In the notification area in the lower right corner of the screen will be an keyboard icon (aka Language bar) to switch layouts.
