Windows 10: Word keeps reverting back to English when I want it to be in French language verification...

Hello,


Every time I change the language setting from to English to French, it always returns back to english even when I put French as the default language verification. I also tried changing the language from the options menu and setting french as my default typing language yet it still comes back to english. I use the newest microsoft word btw.


Why does it do that? And how can I fix it?

:)

The PC no longer displays in English but has reverted to Chinese as the Display language.

Dear Wungraileng Vashi,

Thank you for your reply. I did not make any changes to the PC settings and the only change that has recently occurred is that the BBC Iplayer App was updated to a new version.

Step I results

English (UK) is selected (though if say French is selected the keyboard will reflect the French keyboard layout)

Step 2 Results

English (UK) is selected

Step 3 Results

English (UK) is the top Language (Though cannot be certain if the the Chinese actually indicates if it is the default)

I have removed English as the language and installed French, but apart from the keyboard reflecting those language changes the O/S is still displaying Chinese. There is no Chinese in the installed languages.

Regards,

Rupert
