How to change Windows 7 login screen keyboard layout

I had to change the default keyboard layout from English to Finnish. This is how to do it on Windows 7 professional.

Open regedit by pressing start menu and typing regedit. Press enter.

Then locate: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Keyboard Layout\Preload

1. There should be at least string named default. If it is the only one, press mouse right button under it and add new string value, give the value name 1. If the value is already there skip this part.

2. Double click value number 1 and insert value data, depending which keyboard style you want to set.

In the picture I have set value 1 data to 0000040b which is Finnish.

3. Reboot your computer to apply keyboard layout.
