Windows 10: Canadian English not recognized

I have my language settings configured for Canadian English, but when I compose email, spellings such as "neighbourhood" are still getting the red wavy underline. What else can I do?

Why has Microsoft not ever added Canadian English to the Windows OS?

Frederik, you have misunderstood what I wrote in the topic post, as I mentioned in it that the English (Canada) option in Windows 10 (and other Microsoft software) is actually English (US), only labelled as being Canadian English, while not recognizing the
Canadian spelling for words:

"The Windows 10 Canadian English is actually USA English, spell-checking to color (USA spelling) instead of colour (Canadian spelling), neighbor (USA spelling) instead of neighbour (Canadian spelling), liter (USA spelling) instead of litre (Canadian spelling),
center (USA spelling) instead of centre (Canadian spelling), etc..."

Think of it as if you selected English (US) in Windows, but everything showed up as Japanese - which obviously isn't English (US).

The Canadian English language option in Windows should represent Canadian English, or otherwise be removed from the list of languages, since it currently has nothing to do with Canadian English, and only serves to create conflict between a person's writing
and usage intentions, and the OS' recognition.

"That's a heavy mandate, to speak on behalf of all Canadians . . ."

It's easy enough to manage, since all born-Canadians have the Canadian version of English (or French) as their language, and must use the Canadian version of English in school and where professional writing is required.

 

Why has Microsoft not ever added Canadian English to the Windows OS?

It seems that Microsoft has now made English (Canada) in Windows 10 recognize Canadian English spelling as correct, which is excellent, and thanks go to Microsoft for doing that. However, at the same time, English (Canada) still recognizes USA English as
correct, too. So, if a Canadian misspells a word by using the USA English spelling, it won't be detected by spell-check as an error - which isn't good for academics or professionals, and I think doesn't serve any purpose for Canadians.

It seems that this current implementation is a half-implementation, being a hybrid of Canadian and USA English, and therefore missing misspelling detection for words that are spelled to the USA format. And I really hope that Canadian English, which includes
the proper recognition for incorrect spelling, will be fully implemented.

 

Any Users (Canadians?) of Canadian 'English' Windows 10 Home on here?

Is anyone here using the Canadian 'English' version of W10 Home? As an Englishman, living in Italy, I'm blowed if I'm going to pay over the odds for a UK version of W10H so I was wondering how similar the Canadian version was to British English/UK W10 version.
I'm concerned about spelling, date formats etc.

Cheers,
Tom.
