    Language preferences - troubles with writing in chosen language


    Hello,I'm having troubles with writing in Japanese in Windows 10 - I've installed the language package 2 years ago and everything was working fine until today. When I wanted to write in Japanese, instead of typing out syllables like usual, it came out as completely wrong syllables and suggestions for words and phrases it never used to suggest.I.e. when I wanted to type "ma" it came out as "mochi" so instead of 1 syllable it should've typed out, the suggestion was completely off and wrong. Also, when I press "i" on my keyboard it comes out as "ma".... the whole keyboard when it's set on "japan

    :)

    Having trouble with language preferences

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    We can try few of the troubleshooting steps below to further eliminate the root cause of the issue.

    Method 1:

    1. Navigate the Settings > Time & Language > Region & language.
    2. Under the Preferred language, if
      Bulgarian is set as first in the list, click on the down arrow key
      and make the language as second in the list.

      back up the registry first.

      Disclaimer: The registry is a database in Windows that contains important information about system hardware, installed programs and settings, and profiles of each of the user accounts
      on the computer. Windows often reads and updates the information in the registry.

      Normally, software programs make registry changes automatically. You should not make unnecessary changes to the registry. Changing registry files incorrectly can cause Windows to stop working or make Windows report the wrong information.

      If you still face the issue, reply to this post with more information.

      Hope it helps.

  3. languages preferred

    Hello,

    Assuming you want to use English (United States) as your preferred language, try these steps

    1. Right click Start Button or press Windows + X keys and select Windows PowerShell (Admin).

    2. In the administrative Windows PowerShell window, type these commands one-by-one and press Enter key after each:

    Get-WinUserLanguageList

    This will display list of installed languages on your machine. Note the LanguageTag for your preferred language.

    $1=New-WinUserLanguageList <LanguageTag>

    Replace <LanguageTag> for your preferred language. For example, if your preferred language is English (United States), then you can use $1=New-WinUserLanguageList en-US.

    Set-WinUserLanguageList $1

    After this, when opted, type Y to confirm setting preferred language. Close Windows PowerShell and you're done.

    Hope this helps!

    Tooltips displayed in the wrong language

    Although my version of Windows is set to English and the GPU-Z "Tooltip Language" appears as "System Default (English (United Kingdom))", the tooltips are appearing in the language corresponding to my system locale (or possibly keyboard layout), not the actual system language. I frequently change the keyboard layout and date format (to match the clients I'm working for and the language I'm writing in), but the system language never changes (and software is supposed to run in that language).

    I can manually select "English (United States)", but this basically makes it impossible for me to select the "correct" language (i.e., UK English), because it doesn't appear in the list (other than as "system default" - but is then ignored). Obviously it makes no difference to me if it's in UK or US English, but people with other language combinations might have a problem.

    It seems the routine that populates the language list in the options is (correctly) determining the system language, but the routine that actually generates the tooltips is (incorrectly) reading the system locale instead of language.
