Cortana Language: No option for English - United States

My laptop recently updated to the latest Windows 10.

As part of the Cortana setup there is 'Cortana Language' setting.

On my system I have the option of selecting:

English - (United Kingdom)

English - (Canada)

English - (Australia)

English - (India)

My 'Region & Language' settings are

United States

English (United States)

Any idea why I don't have a 'English - (United States)' option for Cortana Language?

Thanks

 

Cortana hangs with Australian language HI T

We would suggest performing these steps:

• Go to Settings > Time & language >
  Language.
• Select + Add Languages to add English (United States).
• On the main Languages page, long press on English (Australia) and choose Remove. Afterwards, proceed restarting the phone by selecting the
  Restart phone button.

On the next following steps, reverse back the process we did on the first 3 steps:

• Select + Add Languages to add English (Australia) and proceed with the download prompt.
• Again on the main Languages page, long press on English (United States) and choose
  Remove, and restart phone.
• Once the phone has restarted with the correct English (Australia)
  language, go back to Settings > Extras > Hey Cortana, and begin training
  Cortana again.

Let us know how it works.

Regards.

Hi,

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

I suggest you to try the following steps:

• Open the Time & Language Settings page by click on search and typing time and language.
• Make sure that English (United States) is listed. If not, click on “Add a language”, and follow the steps to add the language
  
• Click on “English (United States)”, then click on the “Options” button.
  
• Set the Country and region setting to the United States
• Log off and log in.
