    Hello N MAZIBUKO,

    Do you mean the Sidebar and Drop features in Microsoft Edge?

    If so, this is not a keyboard or language-bar issue. Microsoft retired the Sidebar app, so sidebar apps may disappear after Edge updates. Copilot and the side pane remain available.

    If the Language bar or keyboard options are missing, first make sure more than one keyboard layout is enabled. The Language bar does not appear if only one keyboard layout is enabled.

    To show the Language bar in Windows 10 or Windows 8:

    1. Press the Windows key and type Control.
    2. Open Control Panel.
    3. Select Clock, Language, and Region > Change input methods.
    4. Select Advanced settings.
    5. Under Switching input methods, check Use the desktop language bar when it’s available.
    6. Select Options.
    7. In Text Services and Input Languages, open the Language Bar tab.
    8. Select either Floating On Desktop or Docked in the taskbar.

    If the keyboard is also hard to use, Windows has keyboard accessibility settings here: Start > Settings > Ease of Access > Keyboard

    From there, options include:

    • Use the On-Screen Keyboard
    • Sticky Keys
    • Toggle Keys
    • Filter Keys
