I'm working with Win 10 Pro 64-bit (clean installation, not upgrade), having it bi-lingual (English-Hebrew).
When I want to switch languages, I use Alt+Shift as usual and it's working fine. When pressing on Ctrl+Shift (right or left), the cursor aligns to the appropriate side of the text area to type in.
Usually, this action is supposed also to switch between the languages accordingly – left Ctrl+Shiftaligns the cursor to the left and switches to English, and right Ctrl+Shiftaligns the cursor to the right and switches to Hebrew.
For some reason, this doesn't happen! When I press Ctrl+Shift, it only aligns the cursor, but doesn't switch the language.
I went over all the settings and definitions of language, region and so on, and didn't find a way to fix this.
Any help or advice on this annoying matter would be greatly appreciated.

There are 2 different ways to work with language switching.
Alt-Shift changes between actual languages. A language bar will change from EN to the other language.
Ctrl-Shift will change between keyboard layouts.
In order for this to work, you need to add a second keyboard layout for a specific language. Do note, it may be that the keyboard layout has already been added but still it doesn't work. If so, remove and readd the keyboard layout.
I suspect a windows 10 update causing things to break at some point in the past.
