Occasionally I want to switch between different keyboard languages (english/german/russian).

Therefore I used in the past the keyboard change indicator menu in Taskbar/Systray.

However recently this indicator disappeared.

How can I Windows 8 tell to re-show it again?

If possible I would prefer to have a registry key + value so that I can create a *.reg script
which does the job simply by double clicking.

Thank you
Peter
