My desktop's computer browser features a small keyboard icon on the right side of the toolbar, which reveals a full keyboard once I click on it and thus let's me type using my mouse; this is especially useful when I change my usual keyboard language to another one, since this way I can see the new characters and don't need to guess where they are placed. I'd like to be able to use this icon also in my laptop, but I can't find how to do it; this keyboard icon does not appear in the toolbar > Customize menu, and I don't know where else I should look for it.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

Control Panel > Region and Language Options > Keyboard and Languages > Change Keyboards > TAB General: you can install and delete the other languages and layouts. TAB Language Bar: you can get the keyboard icon on the taskbar again for quick changes (not needed once you uninstall the unwanted languages that comes with it) TAB Advanced key settings: Make keyboard shortcuts to easily change your keyboard language and Layout.
