I had this issue too and I tried a lot of things but I found someone put this vid and said it will fix the problem, so I tried and it solved

Small tip
but the first file that I should delete it on the video I didn't find it, so I just opened the second file and restart only and now it works
I was worried if the file will harm or hack my pc but everything is good right now
Alt-Gr + Shift no longer switches keyboard language back to English after Windows 11 update

Hi, After a recent Windows 11 update, my language shortcut stopped working properly.
I use Shift + Alt-Gr to switch between English and Arabic. It switches from English → Arabic, but it won’t switch back from Arabic → English. The shortcut only works in one direction.
I already checked language settings and keyboard layouts—no fix.
How can I restore the full toggle?
Thanks.
