Hi,
if you are experiencing Windows (2016 server in my case) in remote desktop to automatically change the Keyboard Layout to the default (ENG) one, whatever you set , you are in the right place.
In the last days I fought against my Windows 2016 server. I set the keyboard layout to ITA but without apparent reason it automatically revert to ENG anytime .
I tried in many way to fix it, but it always reverted to ENG, also if in the control panel I deleted any keyboard layout and left just the one I wanted.
Solution:
open regedit, navigate here (be careful! Layout - NOT Layouts )
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout
create this :
IgnoreRemoteKeyboardLayout DWORD 1
logout/login (or reboot the machine), the keyboard layout should be now the one selected from you, if the layout is not set to the correct one, set it , then it should not change anymore.

VmWare player / workstation bridged nic does not get IP Address and Virtualbox error : VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND
On a pc where I was able to run virtualbox and vmware player using a bridged NIC , from one point in time on I was not able anymore to make them work.
I tried many of the solutions found in internet but noone was helping me.
In the end what did the job was to uninstall the nic drivers and install the windows default version like this:
1- windows device manager
2- find the NIC you are trying to use with virtualbox
3- check the driver version, maybe you need this in a later step
4- be sure to have somewhere this or other drivers version for this nic in case windows does not have any driver for it and you want to revert to the actual situation
5- uninstall it (and flag the "delete the driver software for this device" also)
6- run "scan for hardware changes"
If you are lucky, windows will detect the nic and install the windows default drivers for it, and in my case this solved the issue, probably the updated drivers I was using (from the vendor) was not compatible with virtualbox.
If you are not lucky, the nic will be detected but drivers not installed, in this case you should try to install a driver different from the one find in the point 3, maybe something older or something newer.
If you don't have any different version, in the worst case, you'll reinstall the same drivers in point 3 but probably you'll not solve your issue, but at least you'll be able to use your network like before, not from the virtual machine, sorry.
