This article describes information that is related to Windows XP Professional and Input Method Editors (IME).



SYMPTOMS
After you install the Chinese version of the Input Method Editor (IME) on a Windows XP Professional-based computer, if you disable certain hot key settings, you may not be able to enable again them for reassignment to a different key sequence. The affected hot key settings are:
 * IME/nonIME toggle
 * IME symbol toggle
 * IME shape toggle
 * Resend result string
 * Previous composition
 * UI style toggle

This behavior does not occur if you change these hot key settings without first disabling them.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
